Prolivation.com Description:

Prolivation.com takes over your ability to view webpages by attaching the URL prolivation.com/cgi-bin/r.cgi? in front of any web page you try to visit. In essence, this destroys the ability to view web pages since currently the domain prolivation.com is actively registered but dormant. The script itself allows the site to monitor visited URLs and/or redirect the requests, add popups, etc. Adult sites may be substituted for the requested site.
