adza33 Posted January 27, 2015 Author Share Posted January 27, 2015 Ok appears not to happen when you are logged in.. Some redirects were to porn sites, others went straight to the WP app store with bogus info... Is this normal Neowin? Or can this be some virus??? Lutz, LOL LOL these ones required payment!

LUTZIFER Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I would say it'd have something to do with the ads. Its been so long since Ive had ads disabled I dont even know what normally shows. On IE I have tracking lists enabled, and on android I have lucky patcher, both methods block all ads. I have heard of these redirects and weird ads here mentioned befor though.

Steven P. Administrators Posted January 27, 2015 Administrators Share Posted January 27, 2015 I have disabled the ad, now that I know it happens only if you aren't logged in. I will send a report to our advertiser about this. Charisma 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkSHernandez Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 how come advertiser providing porn ads for tech sites? I think it is an adult ad company just like google adsense that buy ad spaces on all type of sites. I saw an article about pornhub.com and fapshows.com and they said that they address to an ad company that have thousands of ads spaces on all types of sites and they will show their ads based on users cache no matter the type of the site they are visiting.
