Links Not Working correctly

    What is going on here?

    My first add here is for Fender. Below is the link code that partner gateway made for me to put in the Destination URL. However when I attempted to enter it adwords said that it contained illegal characters.

    <IMG SRC="http://service.bfast.com/bfast/serve?bfmid=5607334&siteid=41623644&bfpage=1744170&bfurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.musiciansfriend.com%2Fhome%2Fnavigation%3Fq%3Dfender" BORDER="0" WIDTH="1" HEIGHT="1" NOSAVE >
    <A HREF="http://service.bfast.com/bfast/click?bfmid=5607334&siteid=41623644&bfpage=1744170&bfurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.musiciansfriend.com%2Fhome%2Fnavigation%3Fq%3Dfender" TARGET="_top">Build Your Own Links: http://www.musiciansfriend.com/home/navigation?q=fender </A>

    Because of this problem I cut the link code down to just this

    http://service.bfast.com/bfast/click?bfmid=5607334&siteid=41623644&bfpage=1744170&bfurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.musiciansfriend.com%2Fhome%2Fnavigation%3Fq%3Dfender

    I did this with all of my adds and checked to see if they worked which was successful. However I am still receiving only a fraction of the impressions and clicks on Partner Gateway that I am seeing on my Adwords account.

    Has anyone had any experience with this problem or Partner Gateway or any advice on what to do here?
