Hijack or Ad???

[bld522]

So now this has started popping up when I navigate around BF:

Is this part of the new ad campaign or is BF being hijacked?

.

I'm getting it too. I think BF has been compromised.

Sounds like an ad, but none of the ads allowed are interstitial. What browser are you using?

Also, look at the URL at the top of that screen capture. That's not BFC.

I got it too, Firefox 3.6.3

I got it also. I'm using IE.

Perhaps it is only showing up if you don't put in the actual WWW in the URL?

i am not getting it, on safari. BUT bladeforums has been lagging a lot today, at least for me.

im on a PS3 most of the time, FireFox at home. never seen anything like that

It just started and it happened to me twice today so far . . . once when I logged into BF and once when I was already in BF and navigating between subforums. The computer I'm on is using IE 7. I don't have admin privileges on this computer, so I can't upgrade the browser to IE 8.

I haven't seen it.
I'm using IE 7.


I learned what a browser was last week.

Paying members, are you seeing it when you are logged in, or no?

What pages specifically are you seeing it on?

 

[tonym]

I haven't seen anything.

 

[JTR357]

I haven't seen anything either.I'm using Firefox.

 

[Mack]

I haven't seen it. I'm on IE.

If it's any comfort, the site isn't setting off any alarms. And the network security where I work is industrial-strength. It's just disconcerting to be forum-hopping inside BF and suddenly get tossed onto another website . . . malicious or otherwise.

PS: Hillbillegnima saw it and he's a Gold Member.

i saw it on photobucket today but not on BF.

Also, look at the URL at the top of that screen capture. That's not BFC.

Looks like www. cpalead.com to me.

Let me know if this is still occurring, I made some changes on the back end. I think it's ads related.

 

[Fort Henry Custom Knives]

I only saw it once and that was when I was trying to navigate to BF from somewhere else on the net.

 

[Spark]

So you saw it on another site when trying to go here?
