I am having a hard time understanding the reasoning behind having a link that is not being displayed. And having an invisible DIV, that's basically just like commenting out HTML code. So why is display: none better than commented out HTML? Either way, the only way anyone can see it is by viewing the source. Not trying to piss anyone off, just wondering.... Regards.

Of course! Shame on me I'm forget about display:none

Two my website's with hidden links (small banners from statistics websites) are working good and displayed in google for 2 years.

Oh please, SURELY you cannot still believe that when you consider the hundreds of millions of pages that use hidden links as their navigation.

Good luck with that. And I think too that a comment would be nice and do the trick
