I'm wondering how you go about buying a redirect thing for something stupid like a letter. For instance, I don't know if it's just my crazy browser or not but if I type in a letter say p and hit enter before finishing what i was going to write i get redirected to some website starting with p.
I've never noticed this before so it may just happen with firefox.
But if you can buy them that would be awesome ... a great way to forcibly make people visit your site.
Does this happen on other browsers too, and does anyone know how to get a redirect like that?

that's weird.
is a website you've viewed before? perhaps it's predicting from your history??
doesn't happen with IE anyhow.

Nah they aren't. What I will do is type in h in the address bar for example when I want to go to hotmail and a list pops up below with all the h website and I will select www.hotmail.com. Sometimes it doesn't work so it will just look for 'h' and redirect me to some weird site. eh ... |

That's a pretty good, but stupid feature at the same time. People won't know what's going on.
Big Day Out tomorrow! YAY!

Lucky bastard ... It is a great feature ... now that I know it's there  It should let you choose which search engine you want to use there though, because it's handy but I never use google, I always use Yahoo. |
