Forum compromised?

[W3bbo]

Over the past few days I've noticed that when visiting the forum I'm often being redirected to a different site, either attempting to download a (now nonexistent) file from "http://filestore72.info/download.php?id=xxxxxxxx" or redirecting to a less than family friendly site.

I've reproduced the same issue on multiple PCs on different internet connections and also seen on an iPad.

Is anyone else seeing the same issue as it feels as if the forum may have been compromised?

Nothing seen here on my regular visits. Firefox 28 and adblock.

No problems here with FF. Another forum I frequent gave a few of us problems like that. We cleaned the cache and it went away. Give that a try.

Yes I believe it could be. I just read this http://www.blackberryos.com/off-topic-di...oogle.html and tried from Chrome and I was redirected to and XXX site.

If you read the link the problem is on redirects from google searches. I searched forum nextpvr clicked the link and well let's say NSFW

Can anyone let me know if they're still seeing this problem.

Not 'til I get home!

The second clue that there is a problem is there is a direct correlation between forum problems and sub's distance from his home. Usually it is while crossing the Pacific

lol - true.

From FF, Chrome and IE with Bing no issues, so it should be family friendly again.

For a couple of days I am getting warning from Opera that the site might be compromised. I have experinenced no redirections yet.
