The problem is that I have never seen my browser behave in this manner. So I do some testing on my other browsers and they were all showing my error messages. So I try different types of errors, and no matter which type of error I throw it redirects me to this dumb site.
So now I am getting pissed off, I go through all the options on IE and cant find one that would redirect me to some dumb site on an error. So I search my local IE registry and I do a 'find' for <the domain> and boom it comes up with 2 folders. I delete them and boom problem solved.
Now the real question. How the hell between me leaving here yesterday and me arriving this morning do these files get added to my registry.
I am going under the assumtion that I was at a site with low morals standards, and that they installed this when I browsed there to increase traffic to this perfectnav site.
Anyone out there have this happen to them? I have registered a complaint with <the redirect domain involved> and asked them to tell me ways in which these folders could have been added to my computer without my knowlege.
And yes I have a secure terminal in a secure office.

Comes with removal instructions. :)
I just love the morals some people set for the internet. At least there are sites like this one, with people trying to help rather than harm.
