As of this morning, 11/08, Embarq has hijacked a persons ability to search from the address bar in Internet Explorer. They automatically re-direct you to »search.embarq.com/index.php. One has the option to opt out of EMBARQ's non-existing domain landing service, funny how one never opts into these things, but when you do you are left without being able to search from the address bar at all. Basically they have their servers from looking up the DNS for »auto.search.msn.com
This looks primarily as a way to shove advertising down customers throats. But I ask whats next from ISPs? Will they decide what we can and cant view on the Internet?
