twoolley 141 Posted February 13, 2013 One of the ads that are appearing on the site is filling the back button's history with it's web address. After a few minutes the entire back button history is full and it's impossible to go back. I noticed it happening with the forums & the blogs, though it seemed to happen more quickly in the blogs.

Not sure what you're referring to. Are you able to send a screenshot ? Which ad and ad location ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twoolley 141 Posted February 13, 2013 Yep, here's a screenshot. Happened while I was reading a forum posting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex Brecher 10,515 Posted February 13, 2013 Any idea which ad is causing this ? Have you seen this behavior on any other sites ? Scratching my head at the moment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex Brecher 10,515 Posted February 13, 2013 Another possibility.....your computer or browser is infected with a virus or adware. Have you scanned it lately ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NurseGrace 509 Posted February 13, 2013 Use google chrome. then get the adblock addon. I never see a single ad - ever. It's fantastic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twoolley 141 Posted February 13, 2013 I'm at work using IE... so i'm positive it's not adware or a virus. I use Chrome at home with adblock as well. IT security policy prevents me from installing Chrome though. Something called Ad nexus maybe? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IT security policy prevents me from installing Chrome though. Something called Ad nexus maybe? When I google the domain showing up, these are my results. You should also check this out. Seems like it could be a browser redirect virus. We use DoubleClick for Publishers to serve all ads. Never heard of these guys before. I'm highly doubtful this is stemming from one of our ads. Haven't received any similar complaints. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NurseGrace 509 Posted February 14, 2013 I turned off adblock just to test it out. I didn't have this problem. I think OP may want to run a scan. If you don't have any software download AVG or AVAST, they are free and pretty good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
