It's nexon.net. Are you sure you're entering the right address?

and i tried it in internet explorer, mozilla firefox, and google chrome

Well.....it's normal for me.....

How would being banned forward you to a pornographic site? This isn't making any sense.

lol....
It does sound a bit strange....
You sure you are typing the right address?

He's already confirmed it.

Weirdest thing I've heard of in a while.

Me too.....
How did he go to Porno sites???

nexon.com , nexon.net

They both works...
I guess one's korean , one's english .... that's the difference
but it works perfectly fine..... lol

Maybe you have a virus??

i typed in:
maplestory.com
nexon.net

Does the web address change after you enter the site, as if you were being redirected or something?

i dont know why

That is very odd.

One thing you can do...
Recover your computer ... or maybe... format it

i dont want to format my computer ill lose everything................my memories

Then recover it....
There should be a recovery system in accessories

I'm not sure how that will work, unless this is a rare bug he has. In which case, good idea.
You may have some sort of virus/adware/spyware, though. Did you run a scan recently?

And what did you do that would make you think that nexon would ban you and forward you to pornography?

my memories as in my pics
besides im not a technical expert in computers..software wise im say im pretty good
and ive never formatted a computer in my whole life but i know how to format it

Sometimes it's good to recover or format the system
So that it is fresh... +_+

heres proof:



its the maplestory website but when i click it it sends me there

Aha! THAT is helpful. All that was necessary from here was a little googling.

Turns out, this issue is caused by a browser hijack, usually provoked by a malware of some kind.

This is the solution I've garnered. It was from Yahoo answers, and a credible source was cited, but please use this method at your own risk, and good luck.

Click on Start, then Run, type in the following:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\HOSTS
click OK
A box will open asking what program to use to open the file, chose notepad.
look for this line:
127.0.0.1 localhost

Delete anything and everything under that line but not that line. Save and restart your system. This is for XP, not sure about Vista.
