 URL Redirect on www subdomains

Click for full size
I can't duplicate this on all domains, but have on a few. The user gets redirected (but the URL stays the same) when using the www subdomain. For example, www.hcad.org gets redirected to a directory page that also states the domain name expired. See the attached file. On the other hand, if I exclude the www subdomain prefix, the web page loads correctly. My colleagues also noted that www.njlottery.net did the same.

The odd thing is that I can't duplicate this with all domains, and I haven't figured out a pattern, other than it appears .com are not effected, but .org and .net is effected but again not all domains.

Anyone else experiencing this? Any ideas?

Thanks,
Matt

I did forget to mention I already ran Symantec Anti-Virus and Lavasoft Ad-Aware, all with updated definitions. I'll follow the FAQ posted and see what else comes up.

Thanks.

Sorry, Matt.

I could not duplicate what you describe, or perhaps did not fully understand what you have stated. Each link within the two domains shows a different address in my browser windows.
