I experienced the redirect tonight after clicking an e-mail link that opened a forum thread. This is the 3rd time I've had it happen since this started last week.

Was able to capture a lot of relevant data by finding out how to view FireFox cache info. I know which ads were called before the redirect occurred, so we may have a smoking gun.

FYI, the actual redirect appears to be a sneaky thing - apparently it bounces across 3 different web sites - before ultimately landing at windows-defense.com.

Ben got the redirect as well this evening - in the forum also.

Anyway, tomorrow we'll see what the ad provider can do with the info I captured.
