Redirect?

Twice, lately I've been on here, when all of a sudden my page goes to this site, for NO reason!
yellowpages.superpages.com... ar
Does my computer have a virus?
What's the deal? Thanks!

That just now happened to me!

Not 30 seconds ago!

Oh, BTW I didn't know where to post this.
I guess "Board Business & Questions" wasn't a good choice. lol

What's the deal?
I thought it was on my end!
And why Little Rock, Ak.???

I also keep getting this internet script error with a bunch of stuff that mentions pizza hut!

For several days I have had my page changed back and forth to things I have been looking at previously, sometimes days ago, thought maybe I had a bit of a pc virus, but I flipped when you started this thread right at the same time it happened to me!

It even had my hometown on the yellow pages search index!

That's weird!

I notice a Pizza Hut advertisement on some of the threads.
Maybe, this virus is from them?

It happens quite frequently, your computer is not infected but your cache/cookies are.

First look in your history and try to find the url of the redirecting site. What I mean is there is usually a pause between TS and the eventual redirect. Try to grab that URL and send it to admin. Even better is if you can catch it and stop it as it is redirecting so I to capture a screenshot. Staff always wants to know when that happens so they can track the ad service that is doing that.

Then do a browser wipe: history, cookies, cache, malware/spyware removal etc..
There are many software applications that do that.
That usually clears it up for me.

Hope that is correct and that it helps.


Edit: Try also to remember what thread/page you were on when it happened. The more information you are able to provide the staff the easier for them to track it down.

I don't know that much about temporary internet files, but I was just looking at them after the last post suggested it.

Why would I have this pic from the thread about Tara the extraterrestrial goddess in my temp files? I emptied them since I looked at that thread.

O.K., I did that.
Thank you for your help!

What the???
That's weird.
Did it go to your documents?

No, it isn't in my documents, just temp files. I have many images from ATS that I have just looked at as I read the pages.

I even have a copy of the affidavit filed in court from that woman in a thread who is sueing the airlines from 9/11!

I guess I will empty them again! I just don't know what constitutes a temporary file!

Anyone else know?

I just got one that redirected me to some kind of email. didn't catch the name. Got the yellowpages earlier.

Now, Interestedalways can't even post here!
The thread is locked to her.
She also has one of skyfloatings old avatars on her temp files.

Here's Interestedalways pic of skyfloatings. She says she had access to his photobucket account! What is going on with this stuff?

reply to post by Clearskies


What browser are you using? If Internet explorer try changing to firefox, thats what im using and im not being redirected.

reply to post by Clearskies


If Skyfloating is using photobucket to store his avatar picture then that's probably why it is in her temp file. That's the only explanation I can think of.

Safari.
I emptied my cache and did a sweep. It seems better now, but not for Interested.

That happened to me a couple hours ago. Thought I hit a wrong button or something.
