I am using Firefox 3.0.1 on CentOS 5.2 Whenever I enter wrong url in address bar it redirects me to http://searchportal.information.com/ I didn't find any info on google regarding how to stop this. I used to get orkut login page upon entering just "orkut" in address bar and pressing enter, when I was using Firefox 2. But it now redirects to searchportal What's the exact problem? and how to get rid of this? Is this a DNS issue? I use MTNL Broadband, so both the DNS listed in router are DNS IPs provided by MTNL. Entering searchportal.information.com in address bar redirects to information.com These domains are owned by http://www.oversee.com/ as shown by 'dig'.

Type about:config in your URL bar and inspect the values for browse.search.order1 and browse.search.order2. In my case, both are Yahoo.

Keep the entry for Keyword.URL blank and then try it out.
