One of our adverts just Hi-jacked my browser in BJSC. I dunno what one but all of a sudden I was looking at a page with a pop up about intel drivers and downloading things for windows. naolabo.com
Tried to download some shit onto my Macbook. Thankfully I caught it before it could succeed in launching its wee download but it was not appreciated.
After all Google put us through, the least they could do is prevent viruses infecting their bloody adverts.
I unfortunately had to put Adblock back on on BuzzJack because this kept being a problem for me as well.
Oh god, I hate that stuff. It's why I keep AdBlock on. Any way to donate to make up for lost ad revenue?
I must say, I've had no problems leaving this as an exception in my AdBlock lately although if this is happening to other people it's a bit of a problem.
Math, that's lovely of you but there's no need for you to do that! Try turning AdBlock off for the site, see if you get the hijacking ads and if you do, then that's unfortunate but just put it back on and hopefully it'll be sorted soon. I don't think we have any ways to donate anyway.
I'm going to turn Adblock back off and see if it is still a problem for me, I turned it on a few weeks back.
This particular ad hi-jacked the browser, took me off buzzjack and onto it's site where it launched a pop-up and tried to download something to my hard-drive.
It was all very very odd. More like the type of thing I would expect to find on shady streaming sites that are littered with viruses.
yep happened to me too, pretending to be an adobe update
After a while of this not happening any more. At least 5 times today my browser has been hijacked and redirected to the following places:
Make that 7 times.... It's getting worse.
I have had the same on my phone only this afternoon.
You might wanna check your extensions.
I had this as well and I found out an extension I did not install was installed by adware and triggered adverts all over the place
Hmm how odd, I don't experience anything and I have addblock turned off for this website
defo a safari thing it happns all the time on my phone but never on pc
This has happened to me multiple times today as well, and doesn't seem to be stopping
I am on my Laptop too and it is only this site which it is happening on
This is happening to me too - using Firefox too so not just a Safari thing.
Only happening on this site too, redirecting me to the same site as Silas.
Worse still, it's a women's health page. They could at least know their target audience.
I've been back to normal all morning, but this is happening again just now and it's that same women's fitness site again
There is another womans fitness site joining in too... This is becoming a real pain in the neck having to reload a page 5 times to try and view it because it keeps going onto these sites
are you all accessing the site through a mobile device, tablet?
No, I am using a Toshiba Laptop and I am on Google Chrome. Hope this is helpful Phil
This is only affecting me on my iPhone, Phil. Fine here on my Mac (same browser though??).
Could it be a variation of this?

I get it worst on my MacBook so categorically no to the phone/tablet question...
It appears it's not just a Buzzjack problem...

Ok, been looking into this online.
I think it is to do with a malicious google ad, which is being hijacked by phishing ads.
Other forums seem to be suffering from it, mainly when browsing with tablets/phones.
This link seems to indicate that Google are aware? https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/adsense/szfNNkPrkLI
I was having it on Safari on the Macbook and on the iPhone. I copied the code I was getting from my Macbook onto the first page! Hopefully that'll help google identify what ad it is.
Since last night this web address has kept popping up on my screen whenever I click on threads, am I the only one who is experiencing this?

Most of the posts in this thread are about that site/issue....so yeah, it's a problem for a fair few of us.
No I didn't, I mentioned it in the shoutbox then I was directed here.
It was happening throughout the Chart Show for me which was extremely annoying.
Sorry guys, I've also just contacted Google directly and will let you know their response. I will also look to try out new ad platforms to gauge if we can move part of our inventory over..
It's back tonight
are they all the lemode-mgz one? When I get home I will block this ad and then if you guys inform me of new ones I will subsequently block those as well.
There's some sort of Men's Fitness one as well.
This was happening to me last night, quite a lot, my Bit Defender said it blocked it, was happening mostly in the chart forum and BJSC forum. I'm using Google Chrome. on my laptop. It seems fine now.
Just had it for the first time on my phone, something about Thai girls?
I'm getting redirections to a fake android security alert even though I'm on an iPad. It opened a new tab and a dialogue screen so I couldn't get rid of it unless I clicked it. The website was called android-security-alert . safesecuredownload . com.
thanks guys, i contacted Google some time ago and did not hear back! I will send them another chaser and see if I can find out more..
fortunately, pop up adverts arn't a problem for me here on the forum
what annoys me is the random messages on the screen about finance.
i'll go and view a topic, and before every reply is something about finance
this also nearly caused me to post a reply as a new thread, though fortunately they have a feature here where if you don't put a title in the subject, it won't post
that saved me
http://hxxp://m.sinoadv.com/topic/winiphone6/?geo=NL
Just popped my first one in the BJSC forum. Redirecting me to that website, asking me to fill in my phonenumber to win a prize and when I refuse, it redirects me to tell me I am possibly infected with a virus
(I am on mobile browsing with Googl Chrome)
Edit: It actually only happens on the first page of the semi results thread
edit2: Edited the url to hxxp:// like Math did so Nobody would click it
Also happening on anohther BJSC thread: hxxp://get.pricefunding.com/small-business-loan/?campaignid=2973&utm_campaign=PF_Remarketing&utm_content=DynamicWorkingCapital&phone=844-912-2328&gclid=CIPI5qCE9MQCFREoaQodiLEACw
Redirected to that. Changed it to hxxp so nobody would accidentally click on it.
These unwanted f***ers are back. I just got hi-jacked in BJSC
