Thought so, uploaded a site there, but it's pointing to hmv, nameservers are all there, I've never had any dealings with hmv or any affiliate scheme linked to them.

How odd.
 
it is directing you to hmv via a buy.at affiliate link. hmventertainment.at

Something dodgy about the nameserver - either mistaken or purposefully set up wrong.

It's possible some of them steal traffic e.g. every .x% of your visits.

use a trusted one.

Found out what it is, basically i host with bpweb, another of their clients has the domain in their account, which blocked me from adding it to mine - hence why they can put a page up redirecting traffic.

Have emailed them about it - baffled me for a minute there!!
 
This is very strange. I was looking at first names .org.uk and noticed one of them was pointing to HMV website.

Maybe same problem as you have had? It did seem odd as I could see no sort of affiliate link!

Should be sorted overnight, might be some naughty person up to no good. Who knows - it is an aff link, just hidden.
 
Hi ratboy,

Yeah, better keep an eye out for anymore hmv hijackers!!
