Instead of rejecting the DNS request (af6hf doesn't resolve), it offers a fake reply, so a browser request will be redirected to some page (usually advertisements or some search engine). In your case: Name: unallocated.barefruit.co.uk Address: 92.242.140.21
This practice becomes more and more popular among providers.
