[Network] is it just me? Windstream 404??

Is it just me or are you having a windstream powered 404 page?

For example; go to ILoveMicrosoftSoMuchIWouldMakeACookieForBillGates.com

It redirects me to:
»wwww23.entry-not-found.com/searc···OvfCHsbs

Any official word of weather this is true!?

If this is true, why would they make us suffer with yahoo...

Anyway,

I'm hoping to hear your comments about this..

Did you by chance run the installation CD they gave you? I mean I don't know but I get the default fire-fox 404. My guess is that the Windstream installation CD installs an addon for Internet Explorer that gives you a custom 404. Or maybe it's just a yahoo toolbar that detects your ISP. I don't really know, but I don't get it in IE either (I didn't run the installation CD) (it takes me to google.com and searchs for "ILoveMicrosoftSoMuchIWouldMakeACookieForBillGates.com")

I do have the yahoo toolbar, which I asked yahoo not to install >.>

Ah well, do whatever with the thread.

Problem solved :P

I took Y! Toolbar off and no more fancy pages :P

Nice! (The thread will remain up incase anyone else is having this "issue" and sees it so they will know what you did to deal with it ^^!)

It's kinda interesting that Yahoo would do that,

And that domain I originally posted is so fancy, I should register it :P
