Is this a browser hijack or a blogspot.com hijack?

In trying to access the url's of one of my free blogspot.com blogs, I am taken to another website that says I need to update my flash. But the url showing is another url, not mine.

I don't even know where to start with this. Is it a browser hijack or a blogspot.com hijack? And how do I take care of it/fix it? I have not seen this except for trying to access this blog.

As a side note, I can still get into my admin area. So that was not taken over that I can tell.

Thanks.

Jeannie

      Thanks. One step forward - I can access it in IE. I was using Firefox and had the problem.

      I will run my virus checker, is there anything else that needs done with Firefox to clear the reason for the forwarding?

    A question for anybody. Why would this hijack only take place with one url and not others that I go to?
