    Were you using a bookmark or typing it in? Many people buy common misspellings and typos of well known sites and redirect them to their own. Of course this is DP so Im sure you know that :)

    redirect not happened to me either. I think maybe something wrong with your Explorer or some toolsbars and such.

    I am sure with a site like DP its constantly trying to be hacked, only a select few would be able to get past the SHAWNATOR!!!

    Be afraid, be very afraid :D

    I had problems accessing the forums due to those Turkish attacks, but haven't ever been redirected.

    :D

    And yeah, I can't think of any other reason to the redirecting issue. It hasn't happened for me.
    Hmm, well good luck.

    Having the same problem. Sometimes digitalpoint redirects to forumlegal.net.

    I have scanned via Norton / AdAware / SuperAntiSpyware latest definition.

    I've been using DP forums this whole morning and the redirect did not happen to me.... Could it be that just "selected few" are affected :) ?
