Casualbrain Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Anyone else getting strange tab popups when connecting to AW? Been happening to me all day, and my virus-scan says my machine is clean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowden Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 No, he's right.. I'm getting redirected to sites with viruses. I just got redirected to: http://techs1upp0rt623123.tk/?number=877-582-0868 There must be an AD or something that's hacked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanith Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 I also am seeing the one with the red screen (I close it immediately). Happens when I try to click on a subforum or thread from the main board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wow Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 I'll check the code.. but only running AdSense ads. May have been a bad one that slipped through.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluestring Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 I’ll add on to others and say I’m also getting these ads today. Generally pops up for me when I click on a different thread page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowden Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 It occurs frequently on my iPhone when switching between pages, threads, and forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calm_days Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Until it is resolved and removed, it seems that they can be avoided by right-clicking and opening each desired page in a new tab, but left-clicking on links will activate the popups at least once.

jacindc Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 I started getting them yesterday. People who are logged in and not seeing ads probably won't get them. But I've had them on three different machines when not logged in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobalt Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 I got that on mobile. On my computer I've got uBlock Origin as a Chrome Extension, which I'm assuming is blocking the popups. If you're having trouble on mobile, Tapatalk doesn't have these redirects Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thess Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Still getting them this morning, Safari iOS. I think I currently don't have pop ups blocked because I was testing something. I get a new tab auto loading a .ru site. It's been going on all week. Previous poster mentioned Tapatalk, but I haven't been able to get this site to load in Tapatalk for a while so I assumed it was disabled here. I'll give that another try.

the ghost of leroy Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Wow- I know I like to troll so this message is a little corrupted, but you really do have an obligation to shut off ads entirely until these virus laden Russian ads are fixed/while you “look into it”. There are people here who may be clicking them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's irresponsible to leave the redirects as you are exposing people to viruses and malware. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
