AMAZON!!!!

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?

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

No.

malware scan, sir?

(or, I guess, madam)

Yes!
When I click over towards the right side of the screen.

No, sorry.

Yep if I don’t prod the screen in exactly the right place I get the Amazon page

It’s not doing it now, but it did twice about half an hour ago.

Yep. On my android touchpad

Not me

Used to get this on my phone but not for a good while.

Phew, so its not just me then!

I had this on my phone using dolphin browser the other night.

using dolphin browser

Maybe your flippers are too big?

I just logged in and it disappeared 🙂

I had this on my phone using dolphin porn the other night.

???

Errr no! Not on each of 3 different PCs, or my phone.

Yep, had this on my Android phone.

Yeah, sometimes on my android phone. Zooming in stops it.

Yeah, i’ve been getting this recently. Happened ages ago & then stopped, but seems to be back. There was a post about it a few days ago too.

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

Has to be malware, surely?

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.

Looking into a fix for this problem now. Hope to sort it today.

There’s a simple fix for the problem here.[/url]

Yes, on the android phone. I remember this happening here with amazon at least once
either that or I’ve just had the weirdest de ja vue

Has this forum sold out to yet more advertising?

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

Still doing it this morning.

I don’t want a **** kindle!

Still happening here, too. Would it do it on a Kindle?

I thought it was just me being cackhanded.

I’ll highlight it with IT guys, this will not be liked by STW towers. Sorry for any problems it is causing.

Yep, same here – on my Android phone.

Sod off iPhone users before you even start 😉

Not happening on my IPhone 7 😉

Not happening on my Android. 😀

iPhone 7 – isn’t that a bit 10 seconds ago? I’m sure they are due to announce the iPhone 12 at midnight yesterday.

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

Any news on this? I’m still getting redirected all the time from my android phone :/
