Has anyone ever expirience Austrailia Get Fit when logging into Heelychat? I have seen this come up more and more, and now I can only get to it on my laptop (my mac and my PC are both pulling that up)
On my Mac, I'm using Camino and Safari, and my PC I'm using IE7 and K-Meleon (though it doesn't come up with the K-Meleon Browser period)
Basically, I've checked and verified my Proxy Settings (yes, I do have a network in my house that I boot off work ISP for VPN). I have cleaned my computer for all spyware and ad-ware, and it only happens when I go to Heelychat.com
Its not a redirect because I can click on the home and it will say that I'm going to HC, but really it doesn't let me. I've cleared out all Cookies, Temp Offline Folders, Checked for Spyware, Ajusted the Proxies, checked DNS and WINS, and restored IE back to defaults.
Basically, I'm just wondering if this is just with me, or has anyone else encountered the problem with the same or different site, and if any one knows a Remedy to the situation just shy of Ghosting my machine.
On a side note, I haven't tried Firefox on either OS, and like I said, its only on my Mac and PC (they boot off the same Harddrive, so I think it may be related, but I am unknown to something happening like this)
If I don't solve the solution I would be happy to post a screenshot to prove ny sanity lol
Thanks!

Its not a pop up, its a redirect. Second, it could very well go under general since its about the site itself; off topic would be "I LIKE CHEESE", but thats not the issue
Basically, I took a screenshot of it and posted it on my Photobucket
http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m213/IVIMaverickIVI/Screen03.jpg
I know it doesn't show the cursor when a SS is taken, but when I mouse over the Home link, it says that it would direct me to http://www.Heelychat.com/index.html
I know the difference between pop ups and redirects, and I just wanted to see if anyone else has expirienced the same thing before I go playing around in my registry
As for another thing, is though it is sharing the same harddrive, why would it appear on 2 completely different OS on 2 completely different formats (FAT is for Mac and NTFS is for Windows)
I know a lot of you guys may not know what I'm talking about, but more or less if you have ever seen it before, and the tech stuff is just info for people who know how to navigate passed looking up websites on the internet.[/url] |

You probably have adware on your computer. That Ask.com toolbar probably isn't helping either.

| w3rd, I'll check again, but the ask.com thing was known DL from a trusted site, and the thing that is getting me is its doing the same on my Mac OS. Oh well, if I can't find anything, I'll just reformat my HD. Thanks! |

| I think it might be time to talk to your ISP. I'm thinking "DNS problem". |

| Yeah, looked at the DNS settings and WINS, which was the step I took after running through my computer for Adware, which is now more where I'm leaning to because it exists on my Mac OS as well (which still kinda weirds me out) -shrugs- either way, I'll get it fixed lol |
