It is * ridiculous everyday several times a day. Why? Because I don't pay. Ironically I was going to pay the ransom but it appears even the mighty * P doesn't save us.
Tell you what I'll pay for P but does a tech bod want to gamble a free P? I'll pay it if you'll return the cost first redirect.Just how many times do I have to post up the fact that I donāt have a āPā, and havenāt for some years, and that
I donāt have problems with these sort of ads and redirects.
If I donāt, and plenty of others donāt, then explain just why we donāt, and you do, and why itās the siteās fault that you do and I and others donāt.
I don't know why. it's a fault with the site because it happens only on this site. I'm trying duckduckgo but it's a bit shit.
and round we go,weeeeeeeeeeee
Will be interesting to see what happens when google update Chrome to include ad blocking for ads which breech certain standards. 15th Feb is the date I believe. I guess STW towers have verified that all their ads meet the google standards though.

Virus redirects here on brand new stock galaxy S8 both in Chrome & Samsung Browser.
Running stock apps only.
Only happens when visiting STW
Go figure
Still getting popups and redirects, sometimes as soon as I open the home page to click on forum.
At least it's telling me I've won an Amazon prize now instead of virus...

Well 90% of them are provided by Google so we should be ok.
"we should be ok" I assume thats you and chips.
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 15px; color: #bebebe; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; background-color: #111010;">Last year brought a surge of sketchy online ads to the Internet that tried to trick viewers into installing malicious software. Even credit reporting service Equifax wasĀ caught redirecting its website visitors to a fake Flash installerjust a few weeks after reports of a data breach affecting as many as 145.5 million US consumers.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 15px; color: #bebebe; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; background-color: #111010;">Now, researchers have uncovered one of the forces driving that spikeāa consortium of 28 fake ad agencies. The consortium displayed an estimated 1 billion ad impressions last year that pushed malicious antivirus software, tech support scams, and other fraudulent schemes. By carefully developing relationships with legitimate ad platforms, the ads reached 62 percent of the Internet's ad-monetized websites on a weekly basis, researchers from security firm Confiant reported in aĀ report published Tuesday. (Confiant has dubbed the consortium "Zirconium.") The ads were delivered on so-called "forced redirects," in which a site displaying editorial content or an ad suddenly opened a new page on a different domain.</p>
I don't feel left out now. Finally had a redirect! How exciting š
yesterday trying to browse STW on my android phone the pop ups and redirects to malware sites made it completely unusuable.Ā Everytime I tried toget on the page it redirected me to a malware site and locked the phone.
Of all the web pages I visit, This only happens on STW...
I got so sick of it I too a break for 3 months or so and it didn't happen once.
Regardless of the other features of the new website it hasn't happened on my ancient Safari on ancient OS-X since the "upgrade"
