Convert all external links into internal or nofollow links!
This plugin is a fork of the hijacked and vulnarable “WP No External Links” plugin.
The following critical issues have been fixed: 
– Removed Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability. 
– Removed backdoor injected into original plugin. 
– Fixed creation of the new <code>links_stats</code> table: added charset collation and table existence check. 
– Fixed “Specified key was too long; max key length is 767 bytes” error on creating <code>mask_links</code> table. 
– Added removing tables on uninstallation.
No External Links plugin is designed for specialists who care about the number of outgoing links that can be found by search engines. Now you can make all external links internal! Plugin does not change anything in website database – it just processes the output. Now you don’t need to worry about your page rank dropping because of spam bots. You write any kind of http link and it becomes internal, hidden or nofollow! Of course, all the links will still be usable.
To make the long story short, your links like “http://gmail.com” will be masked into 
“http://YourBlog.com/goto/http://gmail.com” – or 
“http://YourBlog.com?goto=http://gmail.com”

WP No External Links

Convert all external links into internal or nofollow links!

WebFactory

Opens external links in a new tab or a or new window. You can set URLs that should either be forced to open in a new window or ignored.
The plugin produces XHTML Strict compliant code and is search engine optimized (SEO). 
This is done using JavaScript’s <code>window.open()</code>-function. It adds only a few lines of vanilla JavaScript to the page, and does not require any external libraries like jQuery.
Most other plugins perform a hack by altering the <code>target</code> parameter (i.e. <code><a href="http://somewhere.example" target="_blank"></code>). That method is not XHTML Strict compliant. 
This plugin handles the links client-side, which lets search engines follow the links properly. Also, if a browser does not support JavaScript, the plugin is simply inactive, and does not result in any errors.
