    GWO redirects to My Space?

    I've had it happen a couple of times, and figured I may have just clicked something odd on accident while the page loaded. The ads can be a bit wonky after all. But I know I didn't click on anything when it happened just now. Does this happen to anyone else? I'm pretty good about keeping my system clean of spyware and the redirect only happens here.

    Any thoughts?

    What did you click initially? A bookmark? Something on GWO? Personally, I've never had this issue.

    I know that because my mouse is a little fubar, sometimes when I right click a bookmark to open it in a new tab (Chrome), my mouse will click the "Open in new tab", and then immediately click the bookmark beneath that. Yeah, my mouse likes to double click sometimes when I single click, and it likes to quadruple click sometimes when I double click...no, I don't have a jumpy "trigger finger", I need a new mouse.

    Initially, I click the GWO link in my bookmarks list. I haven't used My Space in years, so it's definitely not bookmarked. This time I opened a tab specifically for GWO and there was nothing on the page beforehand, besides Chrome stuff, to click. I can have a trigger finger at times, but I don't know what I could've clicked to bring up My Space. And like I said, it only happens when I come to this site.

    My mouses middle-click does that occasionally. So opening a new tab might make up to four of the same kind.

    Haven't seen any MySpace on my computer.

    Maybe it's just a random fluke. Since I'm the only one it's happened to, it seems, and it's really not a HUGE deal, I just won't worry about it for now.
