Mozilla Weirdness

I have my homepage set to msn.com and lately when I go to my homepage or log out of hotmail (which automatically redirects to msn after log off) the msn.com homepage is replaced by the attached page.

Almost as if its been highjacked or something. confused

Has anyone been experiencing the same?

I added the extra "/" to try to trick the webpage!

But it didn't work.

No matter how I type it:
www.msn.com
msn.com
msn.com/
msn.com//
etc it still gets high jacked!

msn is the only affected site, really unsexeh!

Thats your problem, you have MSN as your homepage. Get with the times and get GMail stick out tongue

PM me if you need an invite.

But since you're still stuck in the 90's - Click Tools->Extentions
What do you have installed there?

Oh and upgrade to 1.0.1 - it just came out recently.

With IE you have a way bigger risk of getting a virus as there is a much larer data base of users.

However with mozilla, you have only got 25 million people using it worldwide. This obviously means that Hackers/virus programmers pay no attention to smaller browsers like mozilla, as there is less of a chance of finding an unstable system.

So use Mozilla, it's alot safer smile
