Default Malware / Redirect on Rennlist

Has anyone else been having this issue? I keep getting redirected to a stupid page saying I’ve won an amazon fift card and it’s driving me crazy. I’m not getting it on any other website which leads me to believe its one fo the advertisers. Annoying to say the least.

It would appear that one of our 'esteemed' ad partners thought the Christmas weekend would be a good time to slip in this nefarious 'pop-up'/takeover ad. I've alerted the folks in the advertising department, and provided them with screenshots and URLs that you guys have provided. They should be able to figure out the source and get them blocked today. Our sincere apologies, they are extremely annoying!

Thumbs down

Hmmm the frequency has been increasing. Tempted to shut down Rennlist for a while as it’s really not functional anymore. At this rate I should have about $1 Million in gift cards.

I know. They are affecting more than Rennlist. I haven't posted an update because frankly I have nothing to offer. Our partners at Google only returned from vacation yesterday and it appears it's on them to resolve. I hope for an update by EOD today, pacific time.
