Domains don't get resolved sometimes

[bur]

I sometimes come across this when reporting spam:

Resolving link obfuscation

http://sell.brightfutureoem.com/

And that's all. Normally either an IP should be found or an error is shown that it couldn't be resolved. But sometimes nothing happens. I checked and the URL could be resolved, so that can't be the problem.

I thought there was another thread in place talking about this very issue but the only one I could find is: SpamCop reports with no info about a URL which is not much help. If anyone can come up with the magic search string, please step in.

Another thread I might have been thinking about: URLs not reported, SC finds, but does not offer to LART! which starts out different, but this issue is addressed, I believe.

I referred to this problem in my Topic The Link Analysis Process.
