Getting redirected to weird website when trying to get on this site.

URL2SHORT.INFO - free url redirection and masking service

I am getting redirected to the above thread on multiple computers at work and at home when clicking on your site from the google search. Just an FYI.

Yup happened to me too. Try and close it as quickly as possible because they are virus laden. Also if your virus software isn't as up-to-date as it could be, update it and do a full scan to be certain.

Just tried it from every desktop, laptop, and iPad in our house and never had an issue. I'm sure Mike will look into it though.

Had it happen. Also, you should warn that the link is full of viruses.

I'm not experiencing the issue either. How are you guys searching in google for the site? Can you give us the steps to reproduce?

 

[Crashbombs]

I use Google Chrome. If I open a new tab and search from the address bar "sonic forum" It redirects me to that malicious site. It is the first link that appears in the search.

Tried it from google.com as well same results, still using google chrome.

Working on getting it fixed

I have a temp fix I do everyday so thats why it only does it sometimes

Easiest way is just to bookmark the site or type in the url into the address bar. Should only happen if you follow a link from search engines to our site.

I experienced the same problem with Yahoo (search) yesterday and this morning.

No wonder you're furious....

Saw this on Softpedia today. Pretty much sums up the problem I was having when clicking on the site through Google.

damn, wish I would've seen this earlier! I'm willing to bet it was an .htaccess hack, right?
