It had been a few days, but I just got a "virus warning" redirect:

Thanks for letting me know. I caught one this morning and stopped ads from that network. Since that network has been turned off for a couple of hours, this ad must be coming from multiple networks. I'll try to catch it as well.

I have received the same multiple times in the past three days. Using Safari on a Mac. The most recent was about 5 mins ago. Thank you.

I'm still getting it; just got one a few minutes ago.

I got a redirect from "savingsforfeedback.com" or something this time with cox advertising/pictures. I have been getting a pop up at least once a day about "viruses" but this one was different ... and a lot less jarring than the british lady talking about reporting me to Microsoft, the gov't, etc.

I'm using Microsoft edge for browsing. thanks!

Hahaha! Mine was a British man's voice saying the same!

Ugh I'm now getting them on my Macbook. Using Chrome. OS X Yosemite

I was on the real estate forum. Why are they so bad on DCUM? I never have a problem with redirects on any website, even porn sites.

The redirects are very sporadic. I almost never get them on DCUM, but I do get them on other websites. If I can get them, I can get rid of them. I use a Mac and can switch to Chrome to see if I get any. You should try Safari and see if that works better. I normally use Safari and don't get the redirects.

You get them using the link I provided? Which link exactly? That will help me identify the source.

Jeff, I only use Safari and am getting a ton of redirects (like daily), and only on DCUM. It's getting so bad I may stop visiting (but I don't want to!).

Could you use this link:

http://www.dcurbanmom.com/sovrn/forums/list.page

And let me know if you get redirects there? That link only uses one advertising network. So, if you get redirects there, I'll know where they came from,

I use Chrome (have a PC so Safari is not an option) and also get a ton of redirects, and only on DCUM.
