I made the following search from Google

myydään pentax p30n

https://www.google.fi/search?q=myyd%C3%A4%C3%A4n+pentax+p30n&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:sv-SE:official&client=firefox-a&channel=np&source=hp&gws_rd=cr&ei=uR_qUqL3IIOk4gTgl4G4Bw&safe=high

When I click the third link, pentax p30n säljes - AllaAnnonser www.allaannonser.se/pentax-p30n.html

It shows up correctly for a second or max two (http://www.allaannonser.se/pentax-p30n.html)

After that it is automatically forwarded to the following link, which shows up an empty page:

I can go back in the history to the real page that I searched for, but it redirects again to the empty page.

Google passes such a link through its Safe browsing check and modifies the link to achieve this.

You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:

Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.

"Clear the Cache":

  • Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"

"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:

  • Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

  • Is this only happening in Firefox?
  • Have you tried other browsers?

Yes, I have tried. That did not solve my problem if I am still going to use Firefox - which I would like to because of its extensions. But as a workaround I can of course switch to other browser when this happens - the link that I mentioned is not the only one, it happens now and then but not always. With Chrome it goes to www.allaannonser.se/pentax-p30n.html and stays there without the strange rediectionWith Safari, this link does not show up in the searches at all but if I paste www.allaannonser.se/pentax-p30n.html to the URL field, it is NOT redirected as in Firefox. Note that the redirection happens in Firefox also if I just paste the link to the URL field.

Firefox seems to have some strange problems with referrers. Which rarely can possibly make a real trouble, but this may interfere with any "too smart for its own good" site.

Try some redirect-removing addons.
