Often when im on here i get redirected to a malware site, its only when im on mobafire and i do not have any other sites open. Is mobafire supporting this? they must know that they are doing this?

im not sure what else to say but any comments?

Someone else had that same problem a while ago... Try looking around and buffing the security on your browser.

Do you have a link to a specific place where this is happening?

This is obviously not something we are doing. However we are also unable to reproduce it at this point. Our site is set up to not allow any code through from users that could do such things, and our advertisers are all very reputable and would never do something like this. My initial reaction is to say it's something wrong on your end, but if we could get some more information we could try to investigate.

If it happens again, can you try to remember what URL you were on, and grab a screenshot?

defectz, the issues you are having might not be connected with MOBAFire itself. You could get a random popups from trojans already installed on your system somewhere that are hidden unless you open your browser and they give those popups.

Give more info on the sites you are getting, when is it happening, and what warnings do you get and from which security program?

Screenshots would be the best choice to inform us of your issue. I checked the site on 3 browsers (FF, Chrome, IE) with NOD32 and Kaspersky AV, (NOD32 setup for max heuteristics) nothing happened to me while browsing site or even clicking the adds.

Provide a bit more info on the topic and will try to help you.

Well first off im fairly sure my computer is clean and up to date. and it wasnt a sucessful attack, my computer blocked the attack and i am sure it is here on mobafire. it last occured when i viewed the top rated Udyr build, and im not sure if it occurs other places, i have not payed attention but ill be sure to take note when and where, when it happens again.

React you get it too? Where/when? Screenshot?

I loaded up the top Udyr guide (Restrictnine's) and got no such warnings. I scoured the source for all scripts, embeds, objects, flash, iframes. Nothing is there that isn't part of the system. Our own internal Javascripts and some Youtube videos.

Checked it as well again on both NOD32 and Kaspersky AV.

I found nothing. It might be connected with one of the adverts that ppl get since everyone gets a diferent set of adverts usualy based on the stuff they were browsing. A screenshot would be a realy helpfull tool to get rid of this issue for you guys.

If you cant provide one, please report what kinds of adverts do you get?
What browsers do you use, what plugins do you have enabled and so on. Without it we are blindly walking in a foggy forest.
