Dockett 32 1,239 Posted June 4, 2018 Posted June 4, 2018 Also had a problem. Norton bloked a potential virus from a poster I didn’t remember seeing before. Sorry can’t remember details. Just got off site as fast as I can. Quote

Skuit 10,031 Posted June 4, 2018 Posted June 4, 2018 I also had a pop-up launch within the last two days. I don't recall much other than clicking on a thread link and it launched a different page - assumed I'd clicked before the landing page had fully loaded and struck a banner ad - except that it didn't look much like an expected adservices ad. I remember thinking it had a vague Russianness about it as well (this isn't tongue-in-cheek) and shut it down pretty quick. It wasn't a new window pop-up but a diverted page. I also remember that the page had weird framing/borders. It is the first time it has ever happened - and it did briefly cross my mind that the site had been hacked by a disgruntled Dogs fan. Apologies - I probably should have said something at the time. I'll shout out if anything else comes to mind (the tenor of the ad will come back to me I think - if it's of any help), or let admin know if my bank account has been drained. Quote

Android? Same thing was happening to me for ages and I reported it here Basically I ended up just installing Firefox and stopped using Chrome and it seems to have fixed it. Quote
