DNS goofup?
I guess I was the only person that saw this on Tuesday evening when tying to view Hulu. The only thing that I can think of was some sort of DNS messup on my computer, as once I restarted everything was fine. I clicked around this blog for about 5 minutes, and all of the Hulu links (even from Google) were forcing me to it. Weird.
Edit 4/18/2010: This is apparently an issue with the Linksys WRT160N router, not a deliberate DNS poisoning attack. From multiple forums and support sites across the web (but nothing from Linksys itself), it appears that the firmware (v.11) doesn’t work so well and keeps getting DNS confused. People have had a lot of luck a) updating their browser/system settings to Google DNS or switching over to OpenDNS instead of letting the router have any control over it -or- b) downgrade the firmware to v.8.
