That was popping up on the right hand side of my screen...right next to the scroll bar...I accidentally clicked on it while trying to scroll the page down & it tried to take over my computer by opening several different "tabs"...just thought you might want to know...

I'm glad somebody mentioned this, because I spent quite awhile fooling with my computer the other day, thinking I was infected. It hasn't happened for a few days. Then today some other site tried to do the same thing, but wasn't as persistent. Even dumping cookies and using CCleaner didn't work.

I access this site from my smart phone quite a bit and I get a lot of pop-ups and re-directs. Just this past weekend I clicked on Hunters Campfire and was directed to a porn site.

miner, is it http://seth(dot)avazutracking(dot)net I've ben having the same trouble if it is. Adaware, malwarebytes, and AVG full paid version can't find it on my PC, which would make sense if it's on the 24hcf server. It's a PITA. 
They say everything happens for a reason.
For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

I expect that ad revenue pays the bills for this site and many of those ads are automatically selected through Google or perhaps other search engines. If you do a Google search for some products and go to websites for those products and then come back to 24hr you'll often see ads for those same products.
What that means is the Rick Bin doesn't prescreen all the ads that pop up and some of those ads don't behave well.

I am still getting w32roguegen virus almost every time I visit here. Don't get that on any other web site.

You probably do not have the right protections; it never happened to me.
Is it too ambitious or too naive to look for an honest politician? Or simply a useful one?

I was getting these a few weeks ago when I opened up a thread. I would click on a thread and the gaming site would open up along with the thread that I was trying to read. Not all threads but some. I finally got it to quit by deleting cookies both here and on my computer. I had to do it several times but I finally got them all, I guess. miles
Look out for number 1, don't step in number 2.

I keep getting blocked pop-up alerts for a website called "ar.voicefive.com", which is something I never have had any continuous problems with in the past on the 24 Hour Campfire website. After watching it for over a week now I've noticed that the only time I get that blocked pop-up alert is when there is a Lowe's appliance advertisement in one of the sponsor fields, most often the horizontal ad panels at the top or bottom of the page.

That's the main culprit on my PC and Norton doesn't stop it. The other PC that has Avast has never been bothered by it, that I'm aware of. I sometimes use it but usually the kids do. It may just be that I don't surf here enough using that computer, to have gotten the avaz on it.

I am still getting w32roguegen virus almost every time I visit here. Don't get that on any other web site. For about the past couple of weeks I've also been getting alerts from my anti-virus program of various types malware attempts it has blocked. I haven't noticed any definite pattern to when it happens other than so far it only has occurred here and no other website.

Guys: I'm investigating here, but really most of the ad servers I'm running on 24hour are pretty widespread on the Internet, which means you are not going to run into anything here that you wouldn't run into at any other big site. Still, I'm investigating, and I recommend for anyone having a problem to download and run CCleaner ( https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbth..._THE_CAMPFIRE_SEEMS_SLOW_FOR#Post3059999) or here ( http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/). Run that bad boy, login again, and I think you should be OK. BTW, I'm running a PC with Firefox, a iPad and an iPhone with Safari, and so far nothing. Got some hounds on the scent though ...

At home I run Firefox and have had no problem. At work, they have ie, and I had to explain the popup slam of XXX rated porn that came up last night. Which I was in the dark about, until I seen this thread.

Rick
I visit a lot of sites and this is the only place I've ever had the redirect problem......I'm running a MAC......the problem IS on this site.
When it hits, it automatically opens windows at:
http://seth(dot)avazutracking(dot)net
Most of the time, if I close the window, it opens another, sometimes multiple windows.
If this was on my computer, it wouldn't only be happening on this site.
