Visicom Media Network or VMN.net is a Web portal with a number of free services for users. Its headquarters is in Brossard, Quebec. Most of the traffic is sent to the urlseek.vmn.net subdomain, which seems to be associated with error-redirects of the VMN toolbar (installed in the enduser's web browser as part of various third-party products).
