Sorry you're still getting redirected, huudoo. We're working to resolve the issue as quickly as possible. I sent you one more PM with a few additional questions, if you're willing to take a moment to answer them.

Thanks!

Default Java redirect virus...

Anyone getting directed to a fake java update website? Occuring for me on both home PCs, Mac, and work machines. All come up clean and it only occurs when visiting clublexus.

Do you happen to recall which sections of Club Lexus you were in when the redirects occurred? If you still have the URL of the fake Java update site in your browser's history, can you please provide that as well?

Thank you!

It was the SC430 section. It was something like fixyourcomputer.com. I'll make sure to copy and paste it the next time. It does it almost always the first time I visit after not having been there for a day.

Thanks for the information. When it next happens, please pass along both the URL of the site you're redirected to and the specific Club Lexus page you were on right before the redirect.

Happened again. This time on my mac. Wasn't logged into club lexus. I navigated to the site and clicked on the forum tab at the top. Before I could even select a sub forum, the redirect occurred.

This is the URL(DO NOT CLICK ON THIS unless you know what you're doing)!!!

Sorry these redirects are still happening. Can you please provide the URLs of where you were on the forum immediately before the redirect occurred? pilotd, do you happen to recall the web address of the site you were sent to after the redirect occurred?

We also recommend everyone runs a virus scan to ensure your machine is not infected with malware. Please try following these steps to see if you have any sort of virus on your computer: http://www.safebro.com/downloadrequi...m-virus-remove

Thank you!

I get this on windows and mac, multiple machines.

I am using Chrome, what is everyone else using>?

Also what router and which DNS servers? I use the same router and DNS severs at two locations, trying to see if someone else is using same combo.

Of note, I've never seen it happen and I use Chrome on PC or safari on ipad. I suspect it's because I run adblocker plus plugin and suspect these are occurring as part of an advertisement hijack. Are other folks using any adblocker that have gotten them?

I get this is on IE and chrome on windows and Safari and Chrom on mac.

The URL I was on was literally https://www.clublexus.com and I clicked on the forum tab and it occurred when the flyout unfolded.

Ditto above^. It happens right when i click on forums on www.clublexus.com. It re-directs to a fake Java update site.

I get the same thing at two different places. Both places use the same Router and Comcast for internet.

I was away for a week, on the same laptop where the redirect happens at those locations, it did not happen that entire week while I was using a different ISP and Router.
