Question

Why when I click on a web site another site comes up?

Answer 1

Run a virus scan. Sounds like you have something that is hijacking your request.

Answer 2

It could be that the author simply attached the wrong link when writing the code for the website.  It might also be that more malicious than that.  It could be that the author of the site knows about the wrong link and is trying to trick you into go to another site, or it could be that some one else has altered the site to take you to a different page.

To fix the problem I would:1. Run a virus scan on the page and see if there are any problems with it. 2. Notify the webmaster of the page and let them know which link is giving you trouble.

Answer 3

Sounds like it's an incorrect link.  The author of the site probably made a mistake.
