how can i get links from this?

hi i've been messing around with paypal websites that sell downloadable things, in a lot you can simply lift the link from the source and download for free, but some are like this:

<input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/x-click-butcc.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!">

is there any way to decrypt that and get the URL?

thanks!

This method will only work if they take you to the download section after paying.
Heres a guide..
Hope this is allowed.. if it aint, please delete this.

Use a proxy when you try this to hide your ip as some sites will record your ip when you connect for security.

1) Rightclick your mouse (ctrl+click) viewsource and open the source of the site in an a texteditor
2) Search for the word "return"
3) Next to it you can find the url for the thank you page
4) Copy the url and paste it in your browser and you will see the download link

This works only if you can download instantly after payment, it will not work if the link needs to be emailed to you

hey sorry i didnt realise someone had replied. i was doing it as you mentioned for a lot of sites, but some have encrypted the link in the code, so there is no way to see it, is there any way round this? i've looked into it a bit more and its actually paypal who encrypt it, so i think the answer is no!
