As you know when you mouse over any link on a website the destination url is shown on the bottom right of your browsers window.

In some cases you may not want to show this info for example when the link is an affilaite link.

Here is some basic html to stop the link showing.

A normal link would look like this in the source of your page

<a href="http://www.somesite.com">Link text</a>

straight after the url before the > sumbol put in a single space with your space bar then paste in the following code

onmouseover="window.status='TEXT YOU WANT TO REPLACE LINK WITH HERE';return true;" onmouseout="window.status=' ';return true;"

So your link would now look like this

<a href="http://www.somesite.com" onmouseover="window.status='TEXT YOU WANT TO REPLACE LINK WITH HERE';return true;" onmouseout="window.status=' ';return true;">Link text</a>

Job done!
