Per Geekstogo recommendation, I recently switched to the Mozilla browser. However, the home page of www.flylady.net comes up with the test page copied below. This does not happen in IE. How can I eliminate this Test Page coming up in Mozilla? <_<
----------------------------------------
Test Page
This page is used to test the proper operation of the Apache Web server after it has been installed. If you can read this page, it means that the Apache Web server installed at this site is working properly.
If you are the administrator of this website:

You may now add content to this directory, and replace this page. Note that until you do so, people visiting your website will see this page, and not your content.

If you have upgraded from Red Hat Linux 6.2 and earlier, then you are seeing this page because the default DocumentRoot set in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf has changed. Any subdirectories which existed under /home/httpd should now be moved to /var/www. Alternatively, the contents of /var/www can be moved to /home/httpd, and the configuration file can be updated accordingly.
If you are a member of the general public:

The fact that you are seeing this page indicates that the website you just visited is either experiencing problems, or is undergoing routine maintenance.

If you would like to let the administrators of this website know that you've seen this page instead of the page you expected, you should send them e-mail. In general, mail sent to the name "webmaster" and directed to the website's domain should reach the appropriate person.

For example, if you experienced problems while visiting www.example.com, you should send e-mail to "[email protected]".

The Apache documentation has been included with this distribution.

For documentation and information on Red Hat Linux, please visit the Red Hat, Inc. website. The manual for Red Hat Linux is available here.

You are free to use the image below on an Apache-powered Web server. Thanks for using Apache!

Apparently that page was somehow set as your homepage.

To change the homepage in Firefox:1. On the FireFox menu select Tools -> Options, and then click on General icon.
2. Drag the icon which is displayed in front of the URL of the toolbar onto the home button.
3. Drag a link from a webpage onto the home button in the toolbar.

I orignally did this and even though it was set at the home page, the Test Page still came in. However, it seems to not happen the last few days. One thing I could not do was drag the icon or the URL...I had to type it in.

Thanks for the follow-up. I will keep and eye on this.

I don't know of ANY hijacks that are affecting the latest version of FireFox (ver. 1.0). Please let us know if this reappears. Or, update FireFox to version 1.0:

Will do. So far so good. I have been keeping the Temp files clean, running the other spyware stuff and using the Tools+Options+Privacy and since I cleaned that up earlier in the week the Test message site does not appear.

I have the latest version of Mozilla.
