Today I tried opening a link at foxnews.com.

http://wwwfoxnews.com/tech/slideshow/2013/06/08/mind-meld-top-brain-controlled-techs/

The link I saw at http://www.foxnews.com/ has a picture of some guy with 
a hat on and the words "brain-controlled tech" below it.  I clicked the 
link and was taken to another site asking me to take a survey.  I closed 
the browser and tried again.  This time it also took me to another site, 
but told me I needed to update my flash player immediately.  Of course I 
didn't.  I'm interested in finding out whether or not there's something 
going wrong with my computer or if foxnews.com got hacked.  Could at 
least one of you try the link and see if you get the same thing?  I'm 
interested in whether my computer has a malware infection, foxnews got 
hacked or if somebody there is up to no good.  Also I tried my vpn 
account to get IP addresses is this country and elsewhere.  I always get 
the same dodgy site.  I checked my /etc/hosts file and nothing is there 
that I didn't put there.  Also clamav didn't find anything.

With another thread in mind, I'm wondering if the NSA is messing with 
Fox News.
