was looking at the domain and this is what it showed
I have still questioned the advertiser so lets wait for them to come back to me

Just now happened again.
The browser got hijacked while browsing the forum and I got redirected to below URL out of the blue:

I think that is beyond the point....
The issue here is why is this implemented in the forums in 1st place? I get that the devs are more than entitled to make some money of their work here but auto redirects scripts (or whatever, i don't know how to code HTML) is not a good image imho.
Hope they remove this from the site.

The hijacking isn't acceptable, as Richard said he's working on it.

Ads/codes completely removed from our sites until Adstera sort their system.
Unfortunately this means XBian project is from now on completely dependant on donations

I have zero experience on advertising and/or in site ads but can't the site/forum use Google ads? I never visited a site with Google ads that forced redirects or any shaddy behaviour. ( Or other ads company)
Just an idea.

I don't understand why is it happening because as far as I know that, any forums should not redirect you to the ads. But if you find such a problem then try closing the browser and reopen again or try disconnecting from the router.
