This might be silly - but have you tried putting http:// in front of the 
address? absolute links should be done this way. in other words change 
it from:

www.fizertech.idleplay.net/buynow/standard/agingrpts/insagebyinsresp/insage.
exe

to

http://www.fizertech.idleplay.net/buynow/standard/agingrpts/insagebyinsresp/insage.
exe

I dont fully understand what you're trying to do but it could be as simple as that

good luck
