Funny that you mention it... I've had MB as my home page for a while. I open up my online program and MB pops up. Not today. Today I turn on my pc and the British site pops up, indeed surrounded by kayaking adds. I mention it only because I spent a minute starring at the screen thinking it was a great joke and looking for the "secret" icon to click that would let me into the real MB.
After realizing the address was missing the usual "www" I typed it in and was back in business.
My question is, how is it possible that my home page address changed all on it's own? That coupled with the kayaking adds makes me think that I should be more paranoid about the "how" of interent workings. Can some computer smarto explain?
I wonder if the people that actually go to that site are wondering why the hell there are a bunch of adds for kayaking.
