Hi All,

Very strange one! When I type in any incorrect web address, I used to get a "page not found" error. Now I get a "this future website has been registered with moniker.com" message. It's NOT that I've hit on a page that has been registered with moniker - it's literally anything I type in that should give a "page not found".

(e.g. I just tried and I doubt if some punter has registered THAT with moniker!!)

I presume it's some type of spyware, but it has me confused!

Anyone come across anything like it?

Thanks in advance for any help,

Enda.
