I'm not a fan of the redirect but it's not DSLx's fault that you don't know what you're doing.

No, it's not. But with adware/spyware/etc getting very publicized, how many non-savy users will fall victim to the same problem? If the intent of the redirect is to help new users, they should make it very clear that the page they are redirected to is associated with DSL Extreme and is supposed to help them, so they don't think they are infected.

Re: "I want to thank you for allowing me the opportunity to reformat my drive, reinstall Windows, and then still have the same problem."

If you reformatted your drive because of a 404 redirect and reinstall the OS, then that's funny!
