Upgrade Error
After upgrading to the new version I noticed that URL's get extra numbers behind the correct url.. Take a look @ http://www.elitecaraudio.com/Links/

If I update the pages it goes away for a few minutes but acts up again...

Anyone know what the problem could be??

I looked but do not see the problem. Where are the extra numbers appearing? Can you give a specific URL to look at?

 http://www.elitecaraudio.com/Links/jump.cgi?ID=91

shows up as http://www.angelfire.com/fl/LOWRIDERS|0| |, note the extra |0| |

most links have even more of that at the end..

how did you convert data.db?
if you did it manually, the problem could be from your text editor.
open your data.db and see if these extra charcter are there

read the upgrade instruction that came with the script.
you can do it manually or using upgrade.pl
you need to remove all the null words
from links.db and category.db
