Bad URL in the Error dialog for ClickOnce

So, there's some sort of error in the ClickOnce setup. (I haven't resolved it yet, but that's a separate problem)

Whenever there's some sort of problem where the ClickOnce setup on a user's machine fails, it brings up a dialog. In my case, the dialog looks like this:
Name:  ClickOnce App cannot start.JPG
Views: 69
Size:  23.0 KB

What is the URL in the Click here part of the dialog? If I click it, it goes to some malware site that loads my browsers with hundreds of tabs and I have start the browser in safe mode to get rid of them all. A very bad URL to have a user click on - most think they just downloaded a virus!
I have no idea what this actual link URL is but it's bad.

Is this URL set in my ClickOnce properties somewhere? Can I just get rid of the Click here link or change it to my support page?

In the Publish Options of my application, I have the Error URL as my homepage, so that doesn't seem to be the URL it's using.
