I wonder if they could do something like
<img name="some" src="http://www.google.com/1x1.gif" width=1 height=1>
<a href="http://www.hardlink.com/" onclick="img.some='http://www.google.com/track?url=...'">
(I've probably got the javascript a bit wrong, but you get the idea)
That way it's still a hard link, but they're tracking most clicks.
