    Sounds like a Trojan.

    Can you quickly verify the following?

    1) assuming you are surfing using a computer. Do you get the same problem if you use a different browser on the same computer? If yes, the problem is at least not browser specific.

    2) if you could get to another computer within the same network and access the site again. If the problem goes away, then it would likely be a Trojan that persists on the first computer. If the problem happens again, then either both computers within the network are affected, or your network route has been hijacked.

    3) try accessing on a mobile using 3G (switch off mobile wifi) and see if you can see it on the mobile. This forces the mobile web to go through another network. If the problem persists till this step, it's like APMEX which is the problem. But if the problem doesnt show, it's likely contained within your computers or network.

    Let us know how it goes, I'll see if I can find anything about urlseek and removals.

    They are doing business as usual.
