Anyone getting redirects to "McAfee" or various other sites again? It hasn't happened in a while, and now it's happening a lot again. I also am getting "Can't Find Board" messages.

I've gotten the McAfee one a few times.

I got the McAfee one last night. Thanks because I was worried my laptop was infected but if y'all are getting it as well it is probably just embedded in an ad on one of the pages. Annoying but I'm pretty sure we'll be OK if we just close the page. I cleaned out my cookies and ran a scan but nothing came up.

Yes, so I did what I’ve alway done in the past: switched from Safari to Chrome on my iPad.

Yes, I couldn’t get in at all with the mcafee ads. I closed everything and restarted my iPad and it went away.

I get the “Can’t find” message. It is a blank page with just two sentences on it. I back out, try again and it is fine. I’ve been getting that for a couple days now. It doesn’t happen all the time.

Ohhh. I’ve been getting the McAfee ads on my iPad too. I’ve been wondering what to do about it.

I just got the message again. It says “We cannot find the page you are trying to access. Return to the forum’s homepage.” The second sentence is a link. I don’t click on it, I just back out of the page. It only happens on my phone, so I can’t hover over the link to see where it goes.

I've had the McAfee pop-up ads about 5 times since yesterday. It's driving me crazy. I restarted my computer and I hope that fixed it.

Yes— and I’m getting randomly logged out, too. If I refresh the page I’m back in.

Wonder why it has started up again? Sorry y'all are getting these issues too but I a must say I am glad I am not the only one.  |
