bodypilot90 0 #1 September 23, 2003 Have you ever surfed to a Web page and noticed that the Back button suddenly doesn't work? You can click Back over and over again, and you never get off the page. "Unfortunately, you can't do anything to prevent the hijacking. But there is something you can do to bypass it. "If you right-click the Back button, a list of the sites you have visited recently appears. Even if the Web page commandeers your Back button, it can't wipe out your history. Right-click Back and move back to some place safe." Hope this helps! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Casch 0 #2 September 23, 2003 Your browser doesn't necessarily get hijacked. What is generally the case is a site will redirect you to another site, so when you click back, you are going back to the page that originally redirected you...so it does it's job and redirects you again. But yes, clicking the down arrow next to the back button or right clicking the button and choosing a page that came before the redirection page will get you back.

bodypilot90 0 #3 September 23, 2003 I was trying to keep it simple. A computer newbie called and said his back button was broke. So I thought some might learn a bit here as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
