This problem has nothing to do with gaming but I thought someone here may have some information on a problem Im having. Some websites I visit seem to "hijack" my browser "back" button. In other words, when I hit the back button nothing happens. If I hover the mouse over the back button I get this:

http://googleads.g.doubleclick.net/pagead.etc

instead of the url of the previously visited website. anyone have any idea what's with this?

I run into the same from time to time. If you're running IE, right click the Back Button. You should see a list of the previous pages you were on.
