Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
TiVo sells their own wireless adapter...I wonder how much faster it really is.

They're not a dollar short if it's actually significantly faster.
They are definitely hella late, though.

I don't particularly feel like using my brain today, so I'll just ask here...
What would cause a geocities web page to load, then suddenly reload a completely different page at youbettersearch.com? (saying, "Here are some related searches" and a bunch of ad links.)
The offending page (s.b. car stuff): [link]
eta: OK, it's either Java or Javascript that's causing it to go to a new page... but why?

All is well that ends in pizza.
It's a redirect introduced by the adframe.
This [link] is the actual page for the geocities-based website. I turned off my javascript, and found the adframe listed as (http://)Xadfarce.1mgis.com/?adlink|2.1|25|11615|1|1|key=ADFORCE;misc=430347780;loc=300;
Running that URL brings me to the page to which it was redirecting.

Um... shouldn't they not be doing that?
eta: I mean, they're intentionally redirecting all traffic from that webpage to theirs, right?

It is indeed a no-no. If it doesn't specifically say so in the advertizing contract, I'm sure just on general principles it's deeply stupid.
