Description
Agileware, I've read your comments on hook_term_paths etc but and I am a newbe in this regards, so please be patient with me. My issue is that I am using taxonomy redirect module with Drupal 6.12 but can't get the redirects for some reason.
To be more specific, I have a vocabulary called "Regions" with 2 terms "Asia" and "Europe" and I have 2 custom views "asia_home", and "europe_home" where I want to redirect the users once the taxonomy term link is clicked.
In the taxonomy redirect settings, I selected the desired vocabulary, and the term under it with a plain text filter, and in the path field, i insert the path to my first custom view (asia_home), but the redirect just doesn't happen. Am I doing some thing wrong here.

Where are you trying to redirect from?
DO you understand the notes about hook_term_path and how taxonomy_redirect works?
Basically hook_term_path is used to create taxonomy term links on node pages etc. so when you view a node, the taxonomy term links on that node will be modified by taxonomy_redirect.
Other than that the taxonomy terms won't be redirected. It doesn't actually redirect the taxonomy/term/tid path to a new path (for this try http://drupal.org/project/pathauto), it just changes the link as it is printed.
