Why am I getting mortgage

[Woody]

Every time I log on to the forum I keep getting Penturners forum wants to download files and I get a load of your mortgage payment and when I took a look in my downloads there were 6 files in there has the forum been hacked now this is getting annoying everytime I do something on here they pop up just had another 4 pop up

Woody they maybe want you to pay off the mortgage out of your pension pot

I've never had a problem with anything like that.

The mortgage thing is doing the rounds on some other forums at the moment. I guess you're using Windows as it doesn't seem to effect others. I think you need to turn auto download off or something but I no longer use Windows.

Never had that problem myself, could be whatever browser you are using etc don't get any adverts as I use a blocker!

 

[Woody]

Thanks guys I think I have it sorted now it did start on here but then I started getting it on other sites just deleted about 20 downloads from them

Not had a problem with anything like that myself, but glad you got it sorted Woody.

Probably the spillover from the US babble on their election farce.

Not had that problem Woody but something similar I suppose! Every time I log into the forum I get pictures of naked ladies performing some very indecent acts. It is really annoying I have logged in 65 times today and there they are getting up to all sorts of things. I will give it another 30 or 40 try's this evening and hopefully by tommorow things will have not changed.

I thought I had add blocker just found out I haven't so I downloaded it

 

[Bill Mooney]

Hope you've solved it Woody. I feel really sorry for Vic poor old sod having to put up with all that flesh!

I could be wrong but it sounds to me Woody, like you have some sort of malware infecting your computer. Ad blockers mask the symptoms but anti-malware software cures the cause.

Try downloading Malwarebytes Woody that will let you know..and its free for a while..

Thank you for downloading Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free from CNET Download.com

Even with Adblock you should really use Malwarebytes as you can see with my screenshot, and mine is a quite secure system!

What gets me is I look at something on Amazon or E-bay then come on here and there is what I have been looking in an advert
