I'm trying to go to minecraft's website but....? - Jolteon1 - 11-27-2012 06:49 AM

It keeps going to a hotel finding website called room key? Yeah I have no clue why, is anyone else having this problem? What do I do? The URL at the top still says http://minecraft.net/

The minecraft website is currently down at the moment :/

Have you done a virus scan on your computer lately? Sometimes viruses can cause your computer to THINK it's going to your desired website, & instead show you a different one.
Right at this very moment, the server that runs Minecraft happens to be the same server that runs gamefaqs & Amazon. Gamefaqs has a notice on their site that the communal server is down, so all of the websites supported by that server are also down - Due to some power outages. Give it a few hours, then try back later, if it's not virus trouble.
Other than that, I don't have any better suggestions.

Amazon are having problems with their servers which has inadvertently meant that minecraft's website is actually being shown as a hotel booking website. (Although at time of writing it is no longer) Just wait for a bit and it will be back to normal. You can follow mollstam on twitter for updates (https://twitter.com/mollstam)

It is not a virus so no need to worry
