I think it tried to get me at work but I backed out of it super-fast, and then couldn't reproduce it to get the url.

here's a couple.
http://www.superantispyware.com/download.html
http://free.avg.com/us-en/homepage
http://download.cnet.com/Malwarebyte...-10804572.html
http://www.filehippo.com/search?q=antivirus

Or check out Nanci's suggestion. There's a messload of them. The first two I link are pretty good and take up about a tenth the amount of space on your drive that Norton does.

Evidently AFF is in the bankruptcy, part of penthouse.

Possibly helpful for webmasters?

I'm still not having any issues when using Google Chrome's Incognito feature (Ctrl + Shift + N). However, on my tablet using Chrome (not Incognito), it goes straight to AFF and various other "hookup" sites.

I just got it and the URLs. Forwarding to Rich Z. Not dumb enough to post the URLs here.

maybe Nanci or Rich can edit your post for you
One of the links in one of my last posts turned out to be for some program that installs and runs and finds problems on the pc, but then wanted me to pay for it before fixing the alleged problems, and then took another hour or so to get that off my computer, so I edited that link away.
I think it's safe to say we all have good intentions.

So far I haven't gotten a redirect from neither this site or FC. But I have gotten a redirect TWICE now from my CorvetteFlorida website that is not hosted on the same server and not even by the same hosting company.

My programmer is looking into this and says that whoever injected the code is pretty darn slick. So far he can't find out where or how it was done. He says that it is not from the ad code at all, and feels that the most likely possibility is in the server system code. But of course the server techs want to point their fingers somewhere else.

This must be a pretty widespread problem and surely someone has figured it out somewhere........

So I guess the only choices I have is to grin and bear it, or just shut my sites down and walk away from the internet.

I usually run Firefox with Adblock Plus and Noscript plugins. The Noscript in particular seems to be stopping it. I recommend that to anyone who's seriously bothered by this. Also, when I run it at work I think their firewall prevents the dating script from running.

I'm on my aunt's computer using Chrome, and I just got the redirect to a dating site too. While my aunt and my mother were looking over my shoulder. Awkward.
