Road Runner subscribers rejoice! No longer will you have to wonder why you're getting a 404 error — Time Warner decided recently (in the last few weeks or so as far as I can tell) to redirect page 404 errors to their own search page to tell you they could not find the website you were "searching" for.

Note that this "search result" page only comes up if you type the URL directly into the address bar and come up zero. This "search page" is powered by Yahoo! search. Here's what their page looks like:

http://ww23.rr.com/index.php?origURL=http://www.y2tzz34.com

http://ww23.rr.com/

Apparently this is a legit service they provide but never advertise. It's still hijacking, just done on their end. How does the community feel about this practice? Is this common practice with all ISP's now? If not, is it the wave of the future?
