Mike, I am curious how you usually access SOG. Do you type portraitartist.com in your address bar, do you have a bookmark set up, or what are you referring to when you say "click on SOG"?
I too have XP, but not AOL. Several weeks ago, I typed in portraitartist.com and some other site came up that was clearly not SOG (though I don't recall seeing "St. Louis"). It wouldn't go away until I cleared out my cache, shut down and restarted my IE and refreshed. Haven't seen it since. I am wondering if the site set a bookmark or cookie on your system in AOL that keeps trying to redirect you to the fake site and stays until you clear out your cache again. Weird.
