Every day or so while on this site .. (doesn't happen while on other sites).. my browser gets redirected to some ad site... When it first started a few weeks ago of course I scanned for cooties (found none) ... Checked DNS... it's fine.. The usual stuff...
It has since happened to this site from my phones, my laptop, my office PC and my home PC... That includes.. Safari, Dolphin, Mozilla and I.E. browsers.. .. ..
Whutsup widdat.. ??

Re: That's odd.. .. .
I no longer trust the ad server, and a couple days ago I removed the forum from my "trusted sites" list because of it.
Occasionally I've had "Do you want to navigate away from this page" pop-ups, that won't let me close them without clicking on one of their buttons. Which I certaintly have no intention of doing. I've had to kill the browser task to get around them.
The last straw a couple days ago was when loading a page here triggered my anti-virus program.
