What link did you click on? VFTT is definitely up and running fine as of five minutes ago.

man really? here's my link: www.viewsfromthetop.com/index-vftt.html
I tried typing in www.viewsfromthetop.com as well and got the same junk.
I don't understand why it's bringing me to this italian site.
very strange

Check your DNS settings and routing tables. Could be a problem upstream from your computer, but more likely you've got malware on your machine.

If you bring up a command prompt and type "ping vftt.com", you should see that VFTT.com resolves to 67.242.193.120 (don't be alarmed if the request times out, many webservers don't answer pings) If not, you need to rebuild your DNS tables, and figure out what corrupted them - it's often a sign of a virus.
