Very Worrisome Bug
So, I just noticed some very strange behaviour in the 2.1 beta.
When I drag a file to an empty part of the window, my zotero tab is redirected to a website called falsehope.com
The site seems legitimate enough, but this issue is quite frightening. I've disabled Zotero in the meantime. Does anyone have any idea what's going on? I don't know when this behaviour would have started exactly - I only just noticed now.

This discussion has been closed.
I'm guessing being sent to false.com is a result of some bug in zotero sending false to my address bar, and false.com being the closest guess. Still, I don't plan on enabling zotero again until I sort this out exactly.

seems to be along the lines of what you suspect - this is an automatic re-route gone awry, but since you're now number three this maybe something developers should try to fix.
