I'm pretty sure I was on https://onlineeast2.bankofamerica.com, but of course that's just the top-level URL. I suppose some other server with a component on the page could do the redirect.

I'm on my own private wifi connected to Verzon FiOS That URL is a Juniper Netowrks VPN web client login page. Google ncui. I use a similar setup to vpn into the office. Looks like someone turned on gating on a server you were either connected to or got shifted to. You did not have the credentials to pass the gate anymore [or ever probably] and were redirected to to the login page. I thought you might have taken over a session floating out in the ether, but that was too way out there. My gut feel is that you landed on a server that was gated, or had gating enabled mid-session with you.
