Is anyone else experiencing hijacking by Amazon when attempting to click anywhere on this forum?

Its getting more frequent, trying to click on a thread but instead of said thread opening, I'm automaticly redirected to amazon?!?

Has this forum sold out to yet more advertising?

Nope. Never happened, phone or PC. Maybe because I have a "P"?

used to get it on dolphin browser a couple of years ago post hack but before "P". Not malaware, just a crappy amazon ad and it's click area being the whole page or something. STW hamster fixed it Im sure.

Yeah, they should ditch all that advertising sellout stuff and run their operation on magic beans instead.

It was the latest one and I got it on launch day, but the first call I got as it booted up in the shop, was from O2 offering me an early upgrade to the new one which was being launched in 20 minutes.

I'm in the process of swapping out all our javascript ads for ones contained in iframes. This should fix the issue. I'll post here when I'm done. Given my workload It may be a few days.

Apologies
