This forum on an Android phone gets beyond a joke at times.
On the PC it is absolutely fine as I use Firefox & adblock, so everything is hunky-dory. (Never had a single problem)
But when I use my Android phone, Jesus. Every single other website I visit I can just use the 'vanilla internet' on there & it all works fine. I finally gave in & installed Firefox & adblock on there when I could no longer stand the massive waiting time to load a page (only on this forum) Firefox/Adblock again worked it's magic in blocking the adverts/slow loading/etc... But would sometimes knock the threads out of whack (You'd need to scroll sideways to read some posts etc...)
Anyroad, long story short(ish) I fucked Firefox off again as it was a blagg to use it on my phone only for this forum (And it still not always work right) But since going back to the 'vanilla/default internet' I'm now getting redirected to all kinds of dodgy looking websites (Only when clicking threads on this forum)
I'm 99.9% it's down to the dodgy adverts that pop-up on each thread, can't something be done?

I'm having this problem all the time
Every time I enter a thread currently it fires off to some dodgy 'Android maintenance' sites asking me to click to clean up my OS
Using browser back doesnt go back to the thread, but the website I was on before (BBC etc)
Is a pain in the arse - cant seem to stop it even using Avast and other anti malware
ONLY AFFECTS THIS SITE!

Yup, started happening to me again last night, Robo. It had been alright for a few weeks with only the occassional re-direct, but then last night it started doing it on pretty much every thread I tried to read, sending me to the same site you mention.
Only happens to me on the Oatcake aswell. Everyother site I use is absolutely fine.

I've just checked the Proboards support site and a couple of thread have been started on this particular subject, so we'll keep our eye on it and let you know of any solutions.
If possible could you supply the url of the site/s you have been re-directed to you?

These are screenshots that someone on the PB Support Board have posted. If this is the problem you're having PB reckon they should have the re-direct removed shortly...
