IE page keeps changing to Yell.com grrrrrrrr!

Options
Anyone else had this problem? This has happened a few times recently. I was on theaa.com finding route from A to B and when it got to the page to show the route it immediately changed to a page from yell.com and no matter how many times I hit the back button it kept going on to the yell.com page. In the end I went to the RAC to get the route instead! I have pop-ups blocked and it's not a pop-up anyway, it's an actual page. Really annoying:mad: .

    I've seen this on a few sites... I tend to hammer the back button until I've escaped the site. Very very annoying. Don't know why sites do this - it just aggravates me.
    My TV is broken! :cry:

    No need to keep bashing the Back button.

    Next to the Back button is a little down arrow. Click that and a drop down will appear...just click back to the previously titled page.

    Thanks, will try that next time it happens. Hope I can get back on the page I want to be on!
