Hi gil , most of the free hosting sites will have pop ups and redirects its how they can make something of the free users , I have adblock installed which stops a lot of that stuff , normally its no fuss just an inconvenience to wait for the timer and captcha and close the add redirect but your deal sounds to me like there is more going on .
The nature of your redirect reminds of the old XP virus that basically took over the machine and browser with things like your computer was scanned and it has numerous virus if you want to remove click here which takes you to somewhere where you pay , it was pure extortion and a pain in the ass to remove .
Give your machine a thorough cleaning and scan in software mode , good luck with it mate its very annoying when your computers are being infected with crap , my internet machine I built 6 years ago and its only been infected once and its online 18hrs a day , Ive had most antivirus programs at one time or another and as Ive said today I only use malwarebytes and sandboxie , I also use the free Comodo firewall it leaves the Windows firewall for dead . |
