Redirection to Ad Sites

[Art Corvelay]

I'm getting a lot of redirections to spam websites when clicking on threads to read. The thread starts loading, then I'm getting shuffled off to another site. Seems to coincide with the ads on the page starting to load.

Any thoughts? Not happening on other websites.

I reckon you might have malware - this never, ever happens to me.

Definately Malware. Go through your programs and browser add-ins and get rid of anything that looks like it shouldn't be there

Yeah - not happened since. Bit odd.

I am convinced that sometimes people sneak bad ads past the two ad networks we use.
