Hi guys. Its not a Russian site. Its just a regular website.. some websites show up like that. And I know its not my PB, as I have three in my family. They all show up like this. I am using the default web browser. That url isn't the url of the site I am checking.. it seems to just change to that.
That website doesn't even exist. Curious though, have you sideloaded any Android apps.. more specifically.. Opera Mini? Something isn't jiving here as to how you are seeing Opera Software warnings on your PlayBook if you have no assoc. to Opera at all. One other concern is, how exactly are you connected? WiFi? Cause if that's the case, I'd be looking at your DNS settings and changing them cause if it's WiFi I'd say you're suffering from some DNS poisoning.
It has been a few years since I have used Opera Mini but I used to get strange location errors as well. It was due to how Opera used their own servers to deliver web content. Back in the day, we could get some Flash-like content (i.e. video) on mobile devices (before there was Flash mobile) by using Opera Mini. The downside was that I would constantly get Norwegian or Swedish sites instead of US when I did web searches.

I am not sure what this means, but its making me a bit worried. However, it happens at every wifi spot that I try.
That website does exist, at least ominiupdate.ru does. Plus. if you google ominiupdate.ru, you'll get a couple of Facebook hits, that if clicked on, seem to have links to Opera Mini Browser. I think you're probably getting redirected from the website you're trying to get to. What is that website.
Okay, I was able to visit the site (japan......) using SecureBrowser but using the native browser I get the same screen shown in Post 1, except I do not get the "Opera" in the red bar but I do get the red bar.
Oh, I was fine visiting using firefox on my computer, too.
This is a wrong detection of your browser or a malicious attempt to make you DL something on your device (browser_update.jar). Since the HTML code of this site is quite poor ([Invalid] Markup Validation of http://japaneseculinarycenter.com/ - W3C Markup Validator) I'll bet for the detection error, which is quite a commune mistake with mobile device browsers.

But why would it result in such a weird outcome if its not their sites poor design? 99.9% of sites (I am sure that includes some really crappy sites) just display correctly. Legitimate question, I really am curious. Thank you!

They probably have browser detection rules set to redirect to the browser update site for all mobile browsers.
