It's not a cookie problem. I have the same requirement in all my browsers, that requires all cookies to be displayed for acceptance or rejection. I had no cookies from any site when I was redirected. I suspect a CGI or javascript is involved, which hijacks your connection. It would seem that it might be browser-specific, and also have a random factor built in to it's execution. What I found interesting was that the site I eventually ended up at (yes I clicked to see where it led) wanted me to download an executable. I have no need of windows to know what this executable does. Briefly, when you install it, it disconnects your modem, mutes the speaker and redials to a 1900 number. The first most users know of it is when they get a phone bill showing a call to an overseas location, which was charged to them at a rate of roughly $10 (US) per minute... I think bandwidthplace needs to check their servers (and javascript code). -- Alex Fisher OpenOffice.org Marketing Project Community Contact, Australia
