Yahoo redirecting to Mcdonalds?! - GoFuckYourself.com

05-31-2006, 12:30 PM

In trying to read an article, I click http://www.yahoo.com/s/318620 (Oil prices fall by more than $1 a barrel) on the main page of Yahoo and I get redirected to http://www.mcdonalds.com/ . Anybody else getting this? (All 3 of my computers get the same thing)

cranki · 05-31-2006, 12:31 PM

McDonalds is really trying to push that 2 bic macs for 3 bucks special they got going right now

wdforty · 05-31-2006, 05:17 PM

It redirects to this, http://s/ap/20060531/ap_on_bi_ge/oil_prices FireFox/Google then redirect to McD's.

Same if you were to put the letter "s" in your FireFox address bar.

Weird... I figured it was just a simple case of S.COM, S.NET or S.ORG having a redirect, but those domains don't actually exist. Are there any other TLDs that browsers try when you don't enter a fully qualified domain name?

JayLogic · 06-01-2006, 02:18 AM

McDonalds cheat them :D LOL
