Hi, when trying to access:

https://www.fractalaudio.com

or

https://www.fractalaudio.com/fm3/

I get redirected to a very suspicious and non existent website.

Just letting you guys know.

EDIT, Looks like it could have been malware cookies on my machine.

EDIT2, I'll just add some further info in case it's useful. I accessed the above links via Google search results, then by pasting the URLs directly into the search bar. Latest MacOS, latest Chrome with uBlock and Lastpass plugins active. Problem went away after clearing cookies.

Just cleared my cookies and you're right, it doesn't, I was using Chrome on MacOS.

Must have had some dodgy cookies on my machine. Thanks.
 
Sorry guys, it's getting a redirect and my AVAST is catching gridaflana2.live virus.

Go to downloads, Axe Fx 3
 
It seems fine in Safari on my iPhone.

When making a report like this, please provide the following:

1. Exactly what you're doing ("When I type in https://www.fractalaudio.com" or "When I click ...")
2. What you think is happening ("The site isn't displaying correctly. Instead of [expected] I am getting [result])
3. What device/computer, browser, and operating system.

Site is 100% fine. As is DNS. If it's a problem, it on your end I'm afraid.

Second report of this.

If you're seeing a problem, open terminal and type dig www.fractalaudio.com and report what you get here, please?

No more issue now on my iPhone Safari, dunno. Maybe my DNS updated?

What's dig say? What do you use for DNS? Entirely possibly there's some DNS poisoning happening in a common resolver that you're all using.
