    is your site: http://www.savingeveryday.net/ ?
    It works for me in IE, Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Opera.

    It did it to me at work today on probably 5 out of ten page loads. I had a facebook fan also say it is happening to him. I am at a loss. I have contacted my host, scrutinized my code and cannot find any explaination. But it is definitely redirecting to some toy site at least 50% of the time. Does anyone have ANY idea what I can do?

    If you really have got malware, you need to delete ALL the files in your WP root, wp-admin and wp-includes folder and re-install the current version. If you’re not using the current version, install that first.

    I had a client with a malware problem recently and this fixed it.

    If you still have a problem after that, then it must be in your wp-content folder. So disable plugins one at a time until you find out which it is.

    If it’s still there, it could be in your theme. Hopefully, you know the files there well enough to go through them and see if you can find the problem.

    If you know which site you’re being redirected to, it might worth a text search through all files to find a reference to that, but the likelihood is that any real malware will obfuscate it’s action so that won’t turn anything up.

    PS Backup first of course, but if you do fix it, then junk that backup and do another one.

    Hi Andrea,
    You have some text widgets containing javascripts from other sites. It could be a problem there.
    Also, please try WordPress Exploit Scanner by Donncha O Caoimh
    And check your Host for any DNS errors.
