Fastfluxing?

Changing target domains is nothing to do with FF, which is more about 
changing/revolving the IPs returned as A records for a specific domain.

Changing the domains that the blackhat SEO, search-engine-referer-
checking redirects use is common in these Rogue AV, etc, etc scams, 
typically happening once to several times a day (though that can be 
tricky to trace informally because at least some of them use IP 
tracking and after "a few" hits they will eventually redirect you to 
some other page, such as an apparent search results page, etc).
