    RTE website hacked?

    Can anyone else get into the RTE website? When I try I just get a very non RTE image.

    Yes I saved the page and did a Print Screen and saved that image.

    When I try to ping RTÉ Ireland's National Television and Radio Broadcaster I get

    Pinging www.rte.ie.nsatc.net [69.64.147.243] with 32 bytes of data:

    The pings time out.

    Could be your firewall ...!

    RTE looks normal here:

    Seriously though any idea what's going on? RTE is the only site I'm having problems with and it was fine last night. A Malwarebytes scan shows no problem and my anti virus and firewall are up to date.

    The funny result of the ping is making me think there's some DNS problem.

    Seems to me to be a browser hijack ... it's redirecting your browser - and the browser appears to be Firefox !

    Have you tried IE ?
