The TMF may be Under Attack again??

[Babyshambles]

All is well. I had typed http://www.tickingforum.com/

For the last two days I have been re-directed to a site other than our own when I type www.ticklingforum.com into my browser navigation bar.

On this occasion, I got re-directed to a site called "ticklingforum.com", selling various consumer items.

There was a message at the bottom of the screen which read "Why am I seeing this page?". When I hovered over the link (but did not click it) I could see that it was a mailto: link to WHOIS with subject heading NOT FOUND

Is this suggestive of an attack - or are we experiencing bandwidth problems?

Anyway, I thought I would post something for discussion.

I'm not aware of any problem like that, is anyone else experiencing it?

Possibly it's a virus on your computer hijacking you to shopping sites, some of them will do that.

No problems here. I was on and off several times the last couple of days. All seemed normal.

mmh no problem here either ... i'm surprised it's not in fav's & you have still to type the adress 🙂

It's happened a few times now. I suppose it could be a virus, but i've not been redirected from any of the other sites I've visited. Also, the re-directed site is also called ticklingforum.com - although I suppose that could be manipulated cleverly from the URL I enter.

It only happens intermittently though.

That's what I was thinking. Just put it in favorites and it'll eliminate some of the problems.

Everything working as it should here. Although I type in ticklingmediaforum on my browser.
