Guess where FT took me? Here: http://spi.domainsponsor.com/lander.shtml?powerpint.net

Didn't realize powerpint.net can hijack my browsing page to a total spam site.
Not again! I was searching for my own posts under "My Profile." The 1st search took forever, so I decided to refresh the page then I got the powerpint hijack again :

http://spi.domainsponsor.com/lander.shtml?powerpint.net

This is too ridiculous that I just dropped FT as my FF homepage.
