Firefox takes me to Google Search when I click on some urls. Chrome works on those same urls.
I get emails from Classmates.com that have urls to visit their site. Those urls just bring up a Google Search screen on Firefox. They work properly on Chrome. An example is:
Všetky odpovede (4)
It's puzzling. When I follow that link, the server sends back a redirect to http://www.google.com/
In my case, I might suspect this is because I'm not logged into the site -- which the site could detected by the cookies sent with my request -- and so I'm not supposed to access that link. However, why would they send me to Google instead of their login page??
I think it's a good question to raise with the site if you have an account there.
Thanks. Note though, that this does not happen when I paste this url into Chrome. This makes me think that Firefox is doing something.
