Okay...so I don't think this is hurting anything, but I cannot figure out why it suddenly started happening.
When I click on the log me in button there is a http://h126.dir
I had a similar issue with someone 'prefixing' my .url and I was led to some crowd checking on domain name stats. Anyway it has gone now. I been in PC's for years but there is always something new cropping up! (Thanks Carson...at least there is someone out there who has an idea!:)
Hey Brooke,
This just means that your domain is moving to a brand new server. We are upgrading your domain to a server that is way more powerful.
You are the only one that sees the http://h126.direct. Anyone visiting your site for the first time will see your normal domain name. The temporary http://h126.direct is showing for you because your ISP has the old location of your server in it's cache.
This will only show for you until your ISP refreshes it's DNS which could be any time, up to about 24 hours.
Cheers,
Carson

Good post! I did a search on h126.direct in Google to find out what this was and this discussion is ranking 3rd! Next time, I should do a search in Wealthy Affiliate if I have such questions ^_^
