I attached a screenshot with the Ad circled in blue...
Are you seeing these when logged out or logged in?

I appreciate you passing along the classifieds ad just in case. For the new Java redirect that you received, can you please send me the specific page you were on before you clicked to page 2?

Thanks!

I actually wasn't on any classifieds ad in particular. I was just in the "Private Classifieds" section and I clicked on the link to go to the second page of the classifieds section.

Thank you, guys. Do you happen to recall where you were in the forum when the redirects occurred?

Please let me know which browser you were using at the time, as well as whether you were on a PC or Mac.

Thanks!

Thanks, guys! We're still working to resolve the root cause and appreciate your patience over these past few weeks.

Hey guys, I joined this forum just for this thread lol. I have had the exact same problem, with the same ads you guys are listing in this thread, on another forum, bodybuilding.com

It was the only site doing it to me, so I ran searches to see if there were other forums with people talking about it and found this thread. Ironically, when I clicked page 2 of this thread, it did it to me lol. So, this site and bodybuilding.com are the only ones that have done it to me.

There's a thread with a few members having this problem here:
Anyone else being redirected when opening the forum? - Bodybuilding.com Forums

Some originally thought it was peoples' computers and to run MalwareBytes, but it didn't find anything for me, as well as others.
