I've been getting redirected to content that's not for kids a lot when I log in.
I just got redirected to a site when I made a post on the backfence though. It actually loaded too, a lot of times it's blocked.
Anyway I didnt copy the urls or anything sorry,
but I just wanted to give everyone some internet safety advice a computer technician told me when I spent 300 dollars fixing my desktop.
He said sometimes when you exit out of a site, just hitting the X button can be like a secret link to download the virus into your computer.
Even more likely is a window pop up, like I just got one at the porn site I was redirected to that read, "Are you sure you want to leave this page, everything you saved will be lost"
You can click yes or no, but he said either button can be a way to download the virus into your computer.
So the best thing to do is to load the task manager and end the process of your browser.
I know firefox has like an auto save, so when you reload that it will let you refresh the websites you wish to return to. :>
Now that doesn't mean that every time you get that stuff, you're downloading viruses when you exit out of it, it just means it's possible and it's out there!!
goodluck with this junk Cher!!!
