Title: browsing "back" to a page I never visited - bookpirate?
Post by: clh on August 29, 2006, 16:11:50 pm
While I am browsing on the site, my browser keeps going to this http://www.bookpirate.co.uk site.  I haven't clicked on anything.  In fact, it did it just now while I'm typing this post.  Then when I use the browser's "back" button, it tries to take me to that site.  Is this some advertising thing, or spyware, or what?  Insights, please?

Hi,
It was me, I needed about 5000 links pressing to update an online database and rather than clicking them all myself (waiting for the update for each one - about 15 seconds) I included a random one for each page view.

The work is done now so thanks for your time!
Andy

Thanks for the info.  I was worried for a bit, there.  :) 

BTW, Andy, congrats on your new ticker!  ;D  I just noticed.  :-[
