If you break down that url it looks like: www.citibank.com <- username : <- seperator ac=VybznNffNxknAUxPrfE2jYaQUptJ <- password @ <- at (duh) a3ksd.PiSeM.NeT <- servername /3/?IYTEw4eVTtbH1w6CpDrT <- misc crap And doing a wget on that url gives me this (comments added) <HTML><HEAD> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="0; URL=http://citibank.com/us/index.htm"> <title></title></HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff onload="window.open('welcome2.html', 'nameit', 'top=185,left=250,width=300,height=230,toolbar=no,location=no,scrollbars= no,resizable=no')"> </BODY></HTML> Even if you don't know HTML, it's fairly easy to see what it's doing. It's immediately redirecting you to the citibank page, and telling your browser to give you the popup at the same time. _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
