    AAAGGGHHH!!
    Just opened FF tonight and got taken to : http://www.redrosestationery.com/netscape_home.html

    Delete/modify this link if a known bad site.

    Never been there before.
    Who are they??
    What have I done
    How did their page get to MY FF :mad:
    Is this a problem or me being dopey again?
    ( been very hot downhere lately )

    Tools, options, general and privacy. What is your homepage setting? Are you caching pages?

    Like the avatar.

    Home page: mozilla.org

    Yes, caching up to 5mb per session. No special reason for this; default I think.
    Usually clean out after each session.

    Nothing found with AdAware or SS&D, AVG, NAV, Spysweeper, A2.
    No other sus activities I can see.
    Have spyware blaster with Mozilla option on.

    Any ideas?

    I would try http://www.mozilla.org and see if you still get redirected.

    You could set your cache lower or to zero for awhile and see how it goes.

    Other than that, I would change my homepage.

    If it continues, something else is afoot. :D

    OK
    Will give that a run.

    We'll see what happens
