Getting redirected

No one wants DeRosaware.

lol good point.

But in all seriousness I was offering out of the kindess of my heart (and getting tired of dealing with these stupid ass ads) 

The solution is super super super super simple. I have owned, operated and sold (nothing special but mid 6 figures) web based companies before, handled everything CMS, publishing, advertising, ad tech, ad ops wise with them as well, it's. literally. an. easy. ass. fix.

Likely they are seeing a slightly better CPM by keeping the ads up (like 75 cent CPM instead of a 65 cent CPM) but they are losing short, medium and especially long term on the folks using ad blocker, and folks who just choose to not come back to the site (Traffic has been somewhat stagnant overall and honestly I think a significant reason is because of these stupid malware and auto play video ads)

Again, I implore you...fix....the problem!

Yep, I was getting that yesterday. But not today. But then I wasn’t on the mobile site too much today.

I was seeing the same thing yesterday. Android phone. I don't use it much, except on the road.

I get that redirect from here and MLB.com. I tried Malwarebytes and CCleaner.... Neither of which reported an issue on my phone.... Which send specious, since I get that from two websites....

does anyone know how to fix this? I only get it here and MLB.com.

I switched from Chrome to Brave on my phone. Brave blocks pop ups and trackers and makes this site workable again. Anytime I use this site on Chrome I get the same redirect.

I get it on wunderground, too. Rather, was getting that same redirect there today, but not here.

As someone that wants websites to get paid for their work, that's tough for me to do......do you still see ads?

Not anymore... I will gladly switch back to seeing ads if the redirecting problem is resolved. It is unusable for me after 30 seconds.

I occasionally get redirected when I access TD via android phone, but lately my Windows PC has not given me trouble. In the last day or so, though, Norton has blocked a couple of accesses that were about to yank me somewhere questionable while I was viewing a TD page. I am not sure what is useful information, and for some reason Norton doesn't let me cut and paste the information it's giving me, so here is a bit, typed by hand:

 

"An intrusion attempt by server3.onlinefreelance.info was blocked." (185.44.66.52, 80)

 

If onlinefreelance.info is just the bad guys, probably that's not useful information. But if it's directly related to the ad service, then maybe Brock can follow up.

Yup, just had my phone browser redirect me from this website to a website saying 'congratulations you won' with a spinning wheel and every time I close the browser and re-open, it happens right away.  Have to be incredibly fast to access another site before it comes back up, making it practically impossible to use the browser.

 

And this time I was hooked up to home wi fi so goodness knows what will happen now.
