    Thats the same one im getting.

    It has to be something on this website, as i have been browsing all day on everything but here and not a problem, come on here and within 30 seconds im on that page.

    Link as @SimonW@SimonW requested one;

    https://www.mklpserver.com/?action=vvlp&cscdkey=13f7895eca2250fe2648b928b303a66c

    I have tried everything suggested, clear history, bookmarks, cookies etc. Nothing works

    Reading online it looks like it could be a couple of things

    a virus that is on people's phones and PC

    It can be removed or use a popup blocker from the app store etc

    It could be a rogue advert that is causing a redirect ... Simon will need to talk to Google about this

    But there maybe another reason Simon can suggest

    As I say wife has been getting exact same popup and she dont post on here

    Chrome on Android has the same block redirect/popups option

    https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95472?co=GENIE.Platform%3DAndroid&hl=en

    Probably better to do than using an ad blocker because it will let you see the ads that are on-screen which you can show us which will help us track down the cause (I did get it to do it on my phone once, I think I know the ad but I spent over an hour going through the ads the site has shown and hadn't found it so I gave up and sent it to google)

    Yeah I was the same yesterday, it basically made the forum unusable, all back to normal today by the looks of it though.

    Been on this morning and appears to be ok.

    Does the site redirect to different ads each day and it will be our turn again soon or is it something you’ve changed?

    Ads aren't targeted at the site specifically but the user which is why it doesn't impact everyone. It could be that Google have taken action and removed the problem ad or it could be the advertisers have either ended their campaign, changed the demos they are targeting or maybe in their demos some other advertiser is paying more for the targeting of the same demos so they are getting shown more
