 * Hello,
 * I just installed wordpress on one of my test PC and have some problems with posts
   when I try to include a href link to amazon. Once I press “Publish” it takes 
   more than 1 minute to have the “Post saved” page displayed.
    I did the same test
   on the server I have by my hosting company and I have the same problem there.
 * The content of my post is:
    `<a href="http://www.amazon.fr/exec/obidos/redirect?
   tag=brunetonthene-21&path=ASIN/2709625792/ref=pd_sim_dp_1">Anges et dÃ©mons</
   a>`
 * Does someone knows what wordpress is doing during this minute? How can this be
   solved?
 * Thanks,
    Franck

 * Go to “Options => Discussion” and deselect the option that says `Attempt to notify
   any Weblogs linked to from the article (slows down posting.)`.

 * I have the same problem. It’s actually kinda strange, because if you click on
   the “view site” link some seconds after clicking the publish button, the thing
   you’ve written have been posted. In other words, wordpress isn’t doing anything?
