I dont know if anyone else has experienced problems with the forum today. Twice I have been redirected to a page that alerts me that I am a 'winner' and it wont let me go back or leave unless I shut my whole browser down and restart.
Has this happened to anyone else?

Thank goodness lemonade, I thought it was just me. It's been happening to me all day, it's driving me round the twist.

That happened to me on my mobile too. I couldn't shut it down either. Then later I got a text from Gmail saying that someone was trying to send me a suspicious attachment!!!! They blocked it fortunately.

Apparently there is an ad reporting tool that you can go to if you get a dodgy advert (because it may be the adverts that are redirecting your phone to a different site) So can you try and report it next time it happens? ads.proboards.com/ad-report.html

May I ask what you action were attempting to do when you get redirected. Such as looking at a normal post or looking at a picture?
