Yesterday I used google to go to this site, but I instead been redirected to another site. I have messaged Adam about this but today it still the same. You'll be loosing a lot of visitors coming from search engines.

If the site is using vBSEO.. more info http://www.vbseo.com/f3/security-issue-41463/

That is strange, I just typed dnforum to google and I clicked "domains for sale" link on the first result and instead of being redirected to forum marketplace, I went to this site: url123.info/a0ff83a2

Verified. Takes you to one of those stupid "BUT WAIT! ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO CLOSE THIS WINDOW?" ads... annoying!

Looks like this is back and when using google, DNF seems to be the only site I get this on (nothing for sites like cnn.com, facebook.com, Wikipedia.com, etc…)

Anyone else having issues?

I’m using Windows vista and firefox btw

Is this something we should be worried about?

When a woman said "stop" they mean "more".
I have learned this the hard way.

It is happening again, from Google redirecting this time to myfilestore.com. There seems to be a recognition timer of some sort so it does not happen each time even if you clear your cache, perhaps a day or so. I used Google a few days ago and thought I mistakenly click another link, but it happened again now. However I saw it again when I used Google Chrome.

Easy fix (until it's fixed), type dnforum.com in your browser and use the DNF search function.

I never search for a site I want to go to (I.E. search Google for Facebook and click on the link), I only use search if I'm trying to find something that I don't already know where to look.
