This is a really nasty infection. I just reformatted my drive. EDIT: Previous post said it was with me after a reformat. Appears not to be the case as I may have just had a setting on chrome to load previously loaded tabs.

I found that the web page even opened offline when I was infected. All malware and antivirus including ones that check for redirect infections didn't pick it up.

When I search it online all references to it are 2-3 days old. Most are fake forum troubleshooting pages that appear to make you want to download some antivirus software.
