I got exactly the above today from my home laptop. Using a school computer, I got redirected to a Fileshare72 which definitely looks dodgy, but appears to happen on other Vbulletin sites I visit.

Don't you mean Filestore72 if it is you'll find loads of info about it via Mr Google.

Hasn't happened since I logged in again* but I would seriously tell other users to be careful of where they may get pictures they host and the admin need to speak to their ad supplier.

* Ive had to go and put this site back onto my adblock list because I am not risking my normally tight laptop with rogue ads.

If anyone else needs a little clean up then get the free version of this https://www.malwarebytes.org/

Make sure your AV is up to date and do a malwarebytes scan gents. Just to be on the safe side

Sorry, that was me breaking it in the process of trying to fix the above-mentioned issue :)

Normal service should now be resumed - please let me know on this thread or via PM to me directly if you are still getting redirects. Additionally, please can people affected by the issue clear their caches before re-enabling ads :)

Ah :( OK - will keep looking into it!

Out of interest, is anyone getting this redirect who has an adblocker active?

Attempted resolution! Unfortunately appears to have not fixed the issue.

About 30/40 minutes ago I got redirected to some storage website, already mentioned on another Page. I'm using origami browser on a PlayBook with adblock active.

Sorry it's gone back slow again on iOS.

I wonder if it's connected or should it be in a separate thread?

When I browse on my iPhone using Safari I can load the forum index but if I click into any particular forum it takes forever to load, then falls over and only loads the forum background and header...
