the part of your URL that has NFVDA is what transfers the link to ADVFN - IHUB (as you can see, its the same code only backwards).

There's some deal where SI agreed to work with ADVFN a while back and I think this is part of the legacy code. It does fool us....but now that we know to look for this when you "hover" over the link, I'll know not to click on any links that have the NFVDA in the URL. One extra step and an important one if you don't want to end up there. It has to do with traffic and "user clicks". ADVFN is trying to capture as many "views" as they can. Their statistics go up and they accumulate "unique visitors" to their data set.
