Note: Do NOT click the link. Hopefully your browser blocks it!

Please remove the link. Just say that you are getting redirected.

Anyway, you most likely have a virus or your browser is hijacked or something.

Scan with your anti-virus, scan with an anti-malware (eg: Malwarebytes), try some optimizer/cleaner (such as CCleaner) for your browser. You can also try scanning with something like: hijackthis.

This is not a hive workshop problem, this is most likely a virus. I suggest you seek help in some PC tech forum.

I only get redirected to the site on Hiveworkshop. No other site...strange but I'll check out the virus remover.

Another thing, only internet explorer seems to give it. As soon as I use firefox, it doesn't redirect..

No, its a problem with your internet connection and computer. I get that sometimes with Wikipedia and Forums.Cybernations.Net; both of them will think Google is their domain and not their respective web sites (thus getting a page error). I do not know how to fix this, however, because it just went away after a day but would come back, sometimes a day and sometimes a month.

Again, this is not a virus. Its some sort of very strange error that seems to occur most on sites that you visit often. I don't know much more than that, so sorry that I cannot both define the problem and assist you in fixing it.
 
Seriously, people still keep on entering porn sites? I thought sex was everywhere around us.
P.S. The site has nothing wrong. I guess your virus just caught a random source website to redirect itself, when entering this site. It's called grab-off. The anti-virus sometimes doesn't even realize it's a virus, because it's some random cookies in the cookies folder with a pseudo name, a name that uses the 'grabbed' site's, instead of the redirecting's one.
