What is the problem? works fine for me https://localbitcoins.com should not redirect you have a problem with your local routes, dns or browser hijack like some sort of addon that's redirecting, or toolbar. Title: Re: localbitcoins.com redirects to google.com Post by: haploid23 on June 28, 2014, 08:56:13 PM It works fine for me too. Are you trying to access it from a company work machine? Or some public computers won't let you access certain websites and will auto-redirect you.

Yup, same here. Seems to be a recent thing too. I had "www.localbitcoins.com (http://www.localbitcoins.com)" as one of my browser bookmarks and I remember it simply redirected to the "www"-less version.
