The customer ordered from my affiliate link but was redirected to another link. No hanky panky going on as far as I can tell just a quirk of VISTA operating system. Am I right about this?

Haven't heard the Vista OS doing such a thing. But have heard of spywares that remove your affiliate ids when someone clicks on them - and uses their own affiliate ids instead.

Mostly - these spywares only focus on the bigger affiliate networks: clickbank, cj, linkshare, amazon.

And usually - the buyer isn't even aware of the spyware on his computer... maybe there is a spyware on this person's computer - but he doesn't know it and so is blaming the OS.

You should ask him to run a software like Ad Aware to clean his computer.
