Web Site Hijack

[Inchessi]

From the Google main page, the link for www.xmarksthescot.com brought me to a blind url page that tried to hijack my browser. Please forgive my terminology, I don't know how else to express what happened. I had to ctrl+alt+del to get away without acknowledging anything.

There is another thread about this in the Tech section. This is not a problem with X Marks but a hacker attack on Google.

I suggest to all our members that you do not get to X Marks through Google till they have had a chance to fix this.

Use this search engine, it's clean as a whistle.

I use IE9 and it works just fine. I haven't tried firefox yet. Has anyone had any experience with that search engine?

You mean browser?

Not to muddy the waters any. But if one is seeing DNS re-directs, this article may be of interest.
