Can I get some opinions on the practice of hiding link targets?   

When I hover near the sponsored links in <http://www.uniformserver.com/> the
target of the link doesn't appear in the status bar.

I'm not really complaining about this particular site, but I tried something
similar a while ago, with a bit of Javascript, and then realised it might be
construed as concealing something from the surfer.

I found it irritating that a link could take me to somewhere I don't want to go.

Is it a good practice?
