Amazon astore confusion

Hi,
I have an astore setup on a blogger blog but am a little concerned about the links on the store. From the store if I right click on any of the products and "copy link location" (firefox) and place that link into Amazon's link checker every single link fails even though my ID is clearly visible within the link. Am I going about this the right way or do I have a problem here.

    I have several astores running on sites, and have never had any problems with them getting click throughs, a few sales, etc. I would say click through the links and then check tomorrow when Amazon updates to see if you have clicks registered on your account for the astore today.

    I'm not really sure why you're testing the links the way that you are, but Amazon's always been pretty reliable in reporting clicks, earnings, etc.

      The reason I'm checking the links is because the astore is on a blogger blog and when I went to the blog yesterday it was blocked and Google had a message on the site saying they had noted suspicious activity on the blog and suspended the account, I then had to jump through a few hoops to get it reinstated. I have no idea what they mean by "suspicious activity" so I thought it best to see if the links were still intacted from there but from what I can tell something is amiss as the links straight from the site placed into the link checker are all showing as failed, but as I say this is strange as my ID is there.
      I'm not really concerned with the clicks going through to Amazon but rather that my ID is attached to them.
