My friend, using the safari browser (MACosX) found a weird page, everywhere he click is redirected to a porn site; I was initially thinking to a virus/trojan because in my mozilla the problem does not happen. By the way I noticed (firefox 2.0.0.4) a wrong size of the browser's scrollbars and I investigated it. I found this code in the page ( http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Testo ): (to avoid problems I changed the HTML tags < > with undersores) _p style="font-size: 50000px; left: -50px; width: 100%; position: absolute; top: -50px; height: 100%; font-color: transparent"_ _a href="http://regionhouse.info/" class="external autonumber" title="http://regionhouse.info/" rel="nofollow">[1]_/a_ _/p_ I've already fixed the page by removing the spam code.

Meh, I don't see that HTML, probably just spyware.
Wait, I see the code in and old reverted version: http://it.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Testo&oldid=9299946
OK, I'm in FF 2.0, and all that does is make a huge white box below the page content. Same with IE. In Opera, it makes a large [1].
This is a known issue. It can occur in some browsers depending on the exact markup used. Look at the bug I duped this to. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 9526 ***
