It does sound very strange. &nbsp;Normally I would say check the hosts file (windows-&gt;system32-&gt;driver<wbr />s-&gt;etc), but that would always redirect. &nbsp;Sounds more like a registry key - spybot may find something like that and I'm unsure where it might be located.

Hey,<br />
I'm having a problem with one of my machines. &nbsp;Whenever the user opens internet explorer and tries to go to a website for example: theweathernetwork.com : he will be re-routed to another site. <br />
If the user closes the rerouted site's window and then tries theweathernetwork.com again he will be directed to theweathernetwork.com <br />
In other words; the re-routing only happens once; and even if you close IE it will not re-route you again until the following day.<br />
I know this sounds a lot like spyware but malwarebytes didn't catch nor AVG. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
Any ideas?<br />
<br />
Thanks.

Rerouted in Internet Explorer (strange problem)

Web browsers are applications used primarily to display documents, files and media from the Internet, identified by a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that can be a page, image, video or other file. Some browsers require the use of add-ons or extensions to safely render the information they receive; others have systems built into them to perform the same functions.

Web Browsers

Spyware is software that aims to gather information about a person or organization without their knowledge and that may send such information to another entity without the consumer's consent, or that asserts control over a computer without the consumer's knowledge; it has also come to include programs that engage in various kinds of electronic fraud. Anti-spyware is software that removes or blocks that software; some common vendors include Malwarebytes, McAfee, Spybot-Search and Destroy, Ad-Aware and BitDefender.

Anti-Spyware

A vulnerability is a weakness which allows an attacker to reduce a system's information assurance. Vulnerability is the intersection of three elements: a system susceptibility or flaw, attacker access to the flaw, and attacker capability to exploit the flaw. To exploit a vulnerability, an attacker must have at least one applicable tool or technique that can connect to a system weakness, known as the attack surface. Vulnerability management is the cyclical practice of identifying, classifying, remediating, and mitigating vulnerabilities. Other vulnerabilities include security risks, security defects and constructs in programming languages that are difficult to use properly.
