Both yesterday and today my malwarebytes program has popped up when I logged in here with a malicious site alert. I can take a screen shot next time if you want.

Server techs got done scanning the server and found one possibly infected file in my serpenco.com domain. It's a script in a test shopping cart program that I haven't even looked at in years, much less used. Heck, I don't even remember the admin password to it any longer and couldn't check it out. Besides that, nothing else showed up.

I may try to disable some of the ad scripts on this site tomorrow to see if it makes any difference.

Chalk me up to the list of users of apple products (both my iphone 4 and ipad 1st gen) via safari getting the redirect. I get the redirect on either 3G or wifi connections. The current wifi I'm on is suppose to be heavily secured due to my location, fwiw.

I also got this redirect a couple months ago on my pc via ie 10. Spybot s&d, malwarebytes, norton, and trend micro (house call) all showed that system clean, though ironically my main hdd died on me wednesday. Thankfully it only had oh...all my saved emails, programs, and os installed on it.

Came to check on my new favorite thread and bam! got me again. I wasn't fast enough to monitor the whole process, but these were the sites that it redirected me to:

You can block this action on your own machine, Windows is easy, I think Mac is about the same, but Android can't be done without rooting and I doubt IOS allows you the access. Here's an example: http://www.wikihow.com/Use-a-Hosts-File-in-Windows . You can block the first two sites, but I doubt they stay the same. Blocking adultfriedfinder should be a permanent fix though. You might want to find a hosts file to copy/paste into your machine that has a lot of this garbage already weeded out.

Rich, I would check the ad server / actual ads like you mention, and I would also check to see if your vbulletin templates have been modified recently. This is a pretty old version of vbulletin and the bad guys know how to hack it and add themselves as admin. Then they drop a little script in here or there and often go unnoticed. If this is the case it wouldn't be any actual files on your server, just an html snippet within the template or database somewhere.

It's definitely not anyone's computers, but an issue delivered by the servers involved. It probably has nothing to do with what anyone's personal setup is. But yes, cleaning your own machines afterward is a definite good idea.

For additional information I have gotten the pop up on my PC using chrome with an ad blocker installed.

I also got it on my kindle fire with silk.

I disabled most of the ads on the site, so let's see if that makes any difference.

Any reports? Sorry, but I'm not going to have the ads disabled for long....

I haven't had any on the Mac since I cleaned the cache.
