    Looks like someone has hijacked their domain name and redirected it.

    I hope they get it resolved quickly.

    Cheers

    Hopefully someone can alert the owner ... thought this would be the best chance I'd have of sounding the alarm for their sake.

    I sent an email to one of their non-JRB.com email addresses when I saw this thread, just in case they hadn't been notified yet.

    Part of the site works. Only when I try to open a product page does it redirect to the other page. Really strange hope they can figure it out.
