Annoying Randomness on this site!
Anyone else had this experience?
When I have more than one browser window open this happens. I click on another window (other than a my350z.com page). When I come back to the my350z.com window (sometimes if I simply hover over it without clicking even), the my350z.com page shoots to what I assume is a sponsor's website.
It's not always the same site and it doesn't do it everytime. But the only common thread is that it happens when I come back to the my350z.com window. And no, I'm not inadvertently clicking on a sponsor link. I thought that was what it may be at first. So, I started noting when it happened and what was causing it. All I have to do is click or hover over the browser window (anywhere) with the my350z.com page and, every now and then, it will bounce to another website.
Not sure why things would be set up this way, but this is almost as annoying as pop up windows and, if it continues, I will simply place whatever sponsor's site I get forwarded to on my black list of places NEVER to buy from under any circumstances. It's only a minor inconvenience, but is annoying as hell. If I want to go to a sponsor's site, I will click the link... that simple. This 'forced' link or whatever it is needs to just go away.

It sounds like you have unwittingly installed a Browser Helper Object (BHO). Some of these a benign, but most are malicious and will redirect you to other sites that will generate revenue. You might want to install a spyware scan tool like adaware or spybot and see what turns up then delete it.
