When I go to the msn.com site, im getting a prescription site. I do a nslookup and im getting an altenative set of IP addresses.

Anybody seeing this?

Looking fine here. There's nothing untoward in your hosts file, for example?

Msn.com is fine when I view...

You're not hallucinating on are you?

My boss got infected with some type of scum ware. This made it so that when she typed in a web adress in her browser, she would get re-directed to one of their advertisers.

Nasty and stupid marketing. Get some spyware/scumware/virus removel program; that is my advice.

Did some more checking. It appears to be effecting only one of MSN servers

Im seeing the problem on g.msn.com

I run firefox and I don't have any virus/spyware/scumware installed, so this is not it.

It may be a local or regional misconfigured DNS server somewhere. Im in eastern canada.
