OK, I keep a folder in my Favorites list of daily entry contests. I had 5 that were from Redbook/Hearst Magazines. Today I am going down the list doing my entries, and open http://www.hearstmags.com/redbook/freestuff2005_03_accessories.htm, but what comes up is NOT a contest entry page like usual, but a porn site!!!! The address bar still says the URL above, but the window name at the bottom of the screen says Allinternal.com, and the pictures are VERY GRAPHIC.

Please, if you do Redbook contests, watch out for that one. It was Bags and Baubles, and I guess it ended yesterday, but I don't think that is any excuse to put up porn. Thanks, Redbook, and you WILL be hearing from me!

EWWWWWWWWW! Porn can have its place, but not in my face when I am not expecting it. I do those entries with my dot in the room almost every day.

It takes me to the contest page the link you posted. No porn came up.

Weird, when I click it from this page it does, but from my favorites list (and I had it in there twice, didn't even realize it till it came up AGAIN) it takes me to the gross stuff, but the red line is down the side still, like the contest page. I don't get it! Should I complain, or is it just on my computer? Anyone else have that contest in their list?

This is the link I use to get to those contests

Maybe you have spyware on your pc.

Well, its gone now. All 5 of my Redbook contests are normal now. Sure wish I knew where that came from--I clicked every link in my favorites list and that was the ONLY site that sent me to the porn page, but both copies of the link were doing it. Must have been a glitch that they caught quickly. Glad you all missed it.
