This article at nolo.com is quite informative.  From the reading, it looks
like deep-linking may the issue with the most legal relevance.  They cited a
couple examples where the linkers (tickets.com, microsoft, for example) had
to be careful or make concessions to continue using the deep-links.  

Thank you for the information.
