My Browser sometimes get redirected when I click on a link on the Nuklear site and I was wondering if anyone knew why or has had the same experience.
It happens maybe once every other day and never while I am browsing at another web site.

Today while I was reviewing the Blue Realm stats and thought I clicked on the "Status" column to sort the list my browser got redirected to:

http://click.get-answers-fast.com/ads-clicktrack/click/jump2.do?affiliate=46251&subid=1046&terms=red%20dragon%20player%20blue%20realm%20stats

The browser history lists simply "jump" in the space before the url above.

DK, pretty much anytime that you get redirected to a site that has virtually nothing to do w/ the site that you were trying to go to, you can count on there being some form of malware on your system. A quick google search yields this:

Might wanna spend a bit of downtime troubleshooting.....

Yeah I finally realized I have some type of malware after it happened on other sites.
Haven't been able to find/remove it even after several different scans. Quite the annoying POS it is.
My AV catches it about every other day trying to download more parasites but the original must be buried way down deep in my system.
My frustration may soon be enough to devote a night to hunt it down...
