It could be that another website (a kind of parent) is redirecting the website I want to visit. In the past I have been able to visit it, but recently it has become unavailable. I have also recently received emails from the same domain that is unavailable. There is a lot of information on many websites on this topic of site redirection, so I have done some homework before posting here.
Steps I have taken to stop redirects, none of which work:
1. In IE, Use SSL 2.0 and 3.0.
2. In IE, "Internet Options" > "Security" when the window appears. Set the security to "High"
3. In IE, "Internet Options" > Security: Miscellaneous: Disable MetaRefresh in all zones.
4. In Firefox, "Options," then click on the "Advanced" tab. Navigate to the "Accessibility" box, under the "General" tab. Click the check box next to "Warn me when websites try to redirect or load the page." (I never got any warning).
5. In FF, use "remove redirects".
6. In both, disable Java.
7. On the page that the site redirects to, I searched for .htaccess using R-click View Page info, and View Source info:
no results, but the file may not show up in either of these ways.
Any suggestions for other methods of preventing redirection?
