I finally hit the abuse button on someone. I guess the old saw "there's a first time for everything" is true.

Did anyone else experience an automatic redirect to some Spanish speaking website? I could not refresh any FR page or bring up any new FR page without it going to some Spanish language blog site. I couldn't even log out. I closed all FR windows and pulled up Drudge to see if it had affected my browser on all sites. Drudge came up fine so I came back to FR and the troll was zotted along with its posts. No more problems after that. Looked like more than a spamming attack to me but I'm not too computer/internet savvy.

Run a virus/trojan check to make sure a trojan or keylogger was not loaded on your machine!!!!!
