No Site Found page
« on: November 28, 2010, 12:08:47 pm »
When you try going to a site that doesn't exist you get the "Sorry forum not found page" right?

Ok well if you stay there for like 5 seconds it redirects to a youtube video and starts playing music loudly. Or goes to a bunch of advertisements. And they're the ones that when you click X it says "are you sure?"

VERY annoying. Any way we can get rid of that? I don't even what the possibility of a virus.

There's a HIGH possibility for a virus coming from those types of ads. I caught one of the nastiest malware attacks ever just by visiting site with a malware code injection.

Yes that's why I'm suggesting something be done about it.

My anti-virus can stop just about anything we throw at it... but still... there's a risk with the ads that are popping up.

It might be something that can't be changed though :/
