I get redirected to »www33.not-found-entry.org when entering an invalid domain name in a browser address bar. e.g. sdlkfjlkjlksf.com gives me »www33.not-found-entry.org/search···BtBCWxJe I have tried this on multiple machines, on both XP and Fedora 7, with both IE7 and Konqueror and it still occurs. It occurs for me regardless of what default search setting I have set in IE7 and only occurs on invalid domains, not plain text searches. I cannot stop this behavior even if I disable search from address bar in IE. It occurs in Konqueror in Fedora as well where Konquerer will not even let you search from the address bar. I even tried running without the router, a modem reboot, and using only Fedora 7's live cd with access only to RAM and this still occurs. I felt for sure that Insight's DNS server was doing this but the last customer service rep I spoke with told me he does not believe that this is the case, offered nothing further, and didn't think that it was worth looking into further on Insight's end. Does anyone else, especially people in the Lexington area using the set servers of 74.131.0.20 74.131.0.21, experience this issue? |

Have you attempted to switch your DNS servers first?
»Insight BB Forum FAQ »How can I change my DNS Server?
..and have you verified there is no malware?

| Thank you for the idea on the DNS servers. I pay a lot of attention to security, and ran Spybot and Adaware among other things before attempting on Fedora. When I attempted running my unaltered Fedora Live CD from RAM I felt that this should remove the malware question. I just tried these putting these servers,
ORSC Public Access DNS Nameservers
199.166.24.253
199.166.27.253 ,
into my router and the forwarding didn't happen. Switched back and it came right back. The first person I spoke to yesterday told me that it wasn't happening with the servers they have set in Louisville, but said that it could be happeing in Lexington and initiated a ticket. He then e-mailed me back telling me that it was a legitimate function of yahoo search, but I didn't understand how he was able to determine this, or why this would have any relevance to me given the situation that I mentioned. So am I right that this is definitely pointing to the last guy lying to me when I asked if he tried Insight IP's 74.131.0.20 74.131.0.21 and told me that they seemed fine? Does any one else experience this if they attempt entering those Insight IP's? |

I just spoke with someone at Insight, and he confirmed for me that this was something that they are testing in my area. |
