| Not sure if others are experiencing the same thing as I am. When I click on my shortcut to this site, my browser is trying to access another site and I eventually have to close my browser. Will capture the URL next time. |

| First recheck the shortcut to see it has not been rewritten. Chances are you have a virus/malware, and you browser has been hijacked. Download for free malwarebytes antimalware here: http://www.malwarebytes.org/lp/lp4/?gclid=CO6v2p2R3r0CFUNqOgodPiEAiA Run it on your computer, in addition to any antivirus you already use. Perfectly safe. Easy to uninstall if you wish. Well worth the money if you want the full version. |

I do run virus software, Eset NOD32 that is updated several times a day. I do have access to Malware, and will try it. Thanks for the return. |

| Ok. after several attempts to access this site, I am back in. When I click on my shortcut it tries to take me to illiweb.com. Not sure what that site is, but when I Google it, there are some posts that indicate the site is having routing problems. Not sure if that site is used to route to this site. |
