How to Avoid Explorer Redirections
By default, Microsoft Internet Explorer automatically redirects users whenever a redirect link is embedded in a website. This may happen if you visit a site that has a Flash introduction or log into a discussion forum. Certain re-directs also send you to websites designed for malicious purposes, including to infect your machine with spyware and viruses. Set Internet Explorer to ask your permission before re-directing you to protect your computer from attacks.
