Sandra McDermott reported the problem to her local TV news station Tuesday after clicking on the link while trying to upload video on the Barbie.com Web site with her 10-year-old daughter. Her daughter was uploading the video for a Barbie Video Girl movie contest, where kids enter videos they've shot using the toy. When it looked like the computer might have frozen, McDermott clicked on a navigation link that should have taken her to www.barbie.com/videogirl/. Instead, she was taken to the very not-safe-for-work Camlive.com Web site, which offers "Live Sex Chat - Amateur Cams and Pornstars."
