Site redirection

[ILHawk]

Well, IlHawk....people are having this issue on their phones or iPads. I never had it on my PC. Only my phone. The only thing to cure it for a short time was to clear your history and cookies....on your phone browser....which in my case, was safari.

But you need to go in and clear out any web browsing add ons and search bars. Uncheck or delete.

Look out or Avast should work. Just eliminating the cookies is temp and you still are at risk.

Yes, super anti spyware is only windows.

Only happens here and on this site and when using phone. Gonna stay away from any phone use on this site.

IlHawk, what are your suggestions for dealing with this on the iPad/phone?

This is still happening big time. Using my Iphone and the full site settings, I am getting redirected to the same place.

Is it happening on the boards, or the content pages? How frequent is it? What is the landing page it is taking you to?

 

[HawkinGoferLand]

What forum / post were you in when you got redirected. I'm kind of curious to see what's going on and if I can reproduce it on my own machine.

 

[NCHawker]

Just got redirected again. I was in OT forum scrolling through topics

 

[HawkinGoferLand]

I'm in forums "new posts" when it happens to me. I quit using HN on my iPhone, which means I don't visit as often...

Above is what happened. I was simply scrolling through the thread about posting a funny picture. This is how it looks at first. Once you click "OK". You get a bogus list of viruses.

Kill them with FIRE!!!

Those of you that have gotten this error, if you'd like to, could you download HijackThis ( HiJackThis | Free software downloads at SourceForge.net ) and run it, then PM me the logfile output? It won't send me any sensitive information, just outputs which processes are running, which are set to start on boot/logon, browser plugins, etc. Might be able to spot the particular culprit and find a tool to clean it.

 

[JonDMiller]

I've got every ad network looking into it. I'll try your recommendation there too so we can get it figured out
