wooster234 Posted May 7, 2019 Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 I'm getting some pretty legitimate warnings from some of the windows spawned by clicking on addic7ed.. When I click a link (or what appears to be a link), popups are generated that lead to some pretty dodgy sites. Sometimes Ublock origin catches them and sometimes my router does. For example: Warning! The website contains malware. Visiting this site may harm your computer Sites that attempt to defraud a person or group after first gaining their confidence, used in the classical sense of trust. URL: www.microsoft.com-maintaining-pc.live That's a terribly scammy URL I'm being sent to. Formerly when I was logged into addic7ed I didn't see ads and got no such popups. In the past couple days I've gotten ads and popups even when logged into the site. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrestlerat Posted May 7, 2019 Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 Same here. However, only on PC. I visited addic7ed from my mobile phone, and everything was all dandy there.So to me it seems to be a problem only applying to desktops maybe ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinglouisxx Posted May 8, 2019 Report Share Posted May 8, 2019 Which browser are you all using? Firefox? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McGarrett Posted May 8, 2019 Report Share Posted May 8, 2019 Which browser are you all using? Firefox? it happens in opera , firefox and chrome the ad provider is prob hacked 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinglouisxx Posted May 8, 2019 Report Share Posted May 8, 2019 Yes, firefox. And no, I will not be switching. Other browsers have their own unique nightmare problems. Just asking, since Firefox had issues of their own recently. We won't force you to use another browser, don't worry I don't know if you changed anything, but I'm not seeing any problems today. Glad to hear that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wooster234 Posted May 8, 2019 Report Share Posted May 8, 2019 Firefox here, too. Thanks for checking things kinglouisxx. I'm still having the same issue. It happens whether I'm logged in or not, and additionally addic7ed logs me out much quicker than it used to, which is a relatively minor problem.. EDITED TO ADD: I clicked "remember me" on the login page and now I'm not getting logged out so much. When I'm not logged in I still get the scammy popups, but that doesn't happen often since I stay logged in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrestlerat Posted May 8, 2019 Report Share Posted May 8, 2019 it happens in opera , firefox and chrome Can confirm that. Tried many different browser yesterday, as well as today, to me the problem still exists. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MyNameIs Posted May 10, 2019 Report Share Posted May 10, 2019 When you look at the page source, you see the following: <script async="async" data-cfasync="false" src="//newjunads.com/541e0238dffe0ea3bd43f709a8e82b84/invoke.js"></script> <div id="container-541e0238dffe0ea3bd43f709a8e82b84"></div> </center> <script type='text/javascript' src='//newjunads.com/cf/2c/2d/cf2c2d4546ba9d2d4ac0a343c4787c2d.js'></script> Apparently no matter where you click on the page, you got redirected to this web site. One solution would be to block the 198.134.112.0/24 on the Windows Firewall. Or modify your hosts file and enter 127.0.0.1 newjunads.com 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skojardueller Posted May 11, 2019 Report Share Posted May 11, 2019 This adware problem disappears using VPN even the free one in Opera 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CometACM Posted May 12, 2019 Report Share Posted May 12, 2019 maybe as a workaround until it's fixed:just deactivate javascript in your browser (one click in safari developer menu).The addic7ed site works fine without javascript and cannot show any of those annoying scam-redirects. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrestlerat Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 Yes, for now, turn off java. If using Firefox, NoScript is the tool. Nice little plug-in, easy to configure and lets you use addic7ed without a hitch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
