LinkChecker reported a truncated URL [#2495919]

LinkChecker reported a broken link today, but only shows the first part of the URL.

This appeared in the broken links report:

http://s7.photobucket

.
These are the two links in the comment it referenced:

http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y293/autoauto2/Mobile%20Uploads/20150525_165409_zpsg6mhmbno.jpg
http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y293/autoauto2/Mobile%20Uploads/20150525_165355_zpsp7dnuuve.jpg

.
This might be a clue about what's causing the problem... when you click those links, photobucket redirects to (using the first link, for example)...

http://s7.photobucket.com/user/autoauto2/media/Mobile%20Uploads/20150525_165409_zpsg6mhmbno.jpg.html

.
Note that it is an HTML page instead of a direct link to the .jpg file.

Yes, links are not fully shown in the table as the table is not wide enough.

Based on what you wrote in this post, that cron doesn't extract the links - which I guess means it gets them from the table - how can it check them if it doesn't have the full URL?

[Just trying to understand how it works.]

Move you mouse over the link and you will see the full link.

Actually, I had already viewed the underlying code before I created this issue and saw that the href for the anchor was the truncated URL as well. And when I clicked the link, it took me to one of those generic pages that come up when you hit a domain that doesn't exist. It certainly wasn't the photobucket site.
