Public bug reported:
I'm running ubuntu/studio 10.04 (but it says regular ubuntu on the about
page) x64. I first started experiencing this problem with firefox 3.6
but then I installed chromium too to see if I could bypass the problem
but I can't.
when I'm on the internet I'll get redirected randomly on many different
sites all the time. For example, sometimes if I type in google I'll get
redirected to a myspace page or the w3c content guidelines page (I never
visit either page by the way), and if I try to go to facebook I'll get
redirected to google, etc. Also many times when I'm on google and I
click a link that i've searched, it thinks that the site I was going to
go to was part of google and will give me a google 404 error. It's very
frustrating.
