Did you get reported? I see nothing wrong with the question.
But, unfortunately, I see the likely culprit.

"CJ" has since been suspended from Y!A and he/she looks like a spammer. If you the answer that is chosen as the best answer is reported, your question is removed, sorry.
Be extra careful, and if you get irrelevant links on your questions, you might want to take a look at the profile of the answerer, otherwise this may happen again.
If you were reported, you should appeal. If it was deleted for the above reason ^^, sorry, there's nothing you can do, it's just how the website works.
Unfortunately, there is a lot of spam here on Y!A and you should report it if you see it.
Whenever you ask a question about a deletion, it is a good idea to include the exact text of the item that was deleted. That way, we don't have to guess. If it is a question, be sure to include any Additional Details you have added. Sometimes that's where the violation is. Being too chatty is a common violation. Were you asking about things that only pertain to you, yourself? If so, it's considered chatty.
Your question was most likely reported and removed because it violated the Community Guidelines. This is an information exchange site -- not a chat room or social site or discussion forum. Questions here must be seeking knowledge or advice of general interest to the community.

It looks like the answer is spam. If it was chosen as best answer and reported then the question is also removed. You do not get penalized for that.
