  I don't see any ads either, and I'm not using AdBlock.  But I am
using NoScript.  The page seems to trip NoScript's anti-XSS
(Cross-Site Scripting) defenses.  NoScript claims it's logging details
to the console but I never see any.  In any event, I had to do an
"Unsafe Reload" to get the page to work properly.

  The linked-to page is apparently search results.  Another
irritation, the single result link uses JavaScript rather than a
simple HREF to link.  Bogus.  Keeps me from opening links in new tabs,
which I do all the time.

  And then the page it opens is wrapped in frames for no good reason.

  I note from the site icon and URL format that they're running
Loathsome Notes.  That probably explains the craptacular web design.
With Notes, Lotus/IBM seem to have an explicit design goal of making
the worst user interface known to man.
