I go to the site and get this

http://www.alternate-ad-url.com/?redir=frame&uid=www5655192ddda0e6.14226365

every time
and I can't get to the forums

I had to do a search and get to the forums directly instead of from the homepage

why is this?

is the site being targeted like Gronk is?
is it for sale?

You may have some malware on your machine. Go and download https://www.malwarebytes.org/ and run full scans on your machine.

I am aware of no issues here other than a cranky owner that has not updated site software yer ;)

Likely some malware. Also always good to flush your cache, cookies etc... in case something is confusing your browser.

Thanks guys

it's a browser war Slip

like when you download a different browser
and suddenly all your icons change

ya know what zooms really fast
bing! so open yer browser
input: :point: www.bing.com
while in bing put in the search box
www.stripedbass.com/stripertalk
hit enter ....then drag that address
to your task bar and make it permanent

This was happening to me a bunch about 2 weeks ago and has begun once again. I get the same redirected page as Bruce. Had to go in through a Bing search directly to the forums to get here today.

crazy isn't it?

i don't know the answer
clean cookies
run malware(I did that)

there are hackers everywhere

ya know what I do....
yuk- yuk- yuk (spoken like Curly)

I come thru the BACK door

just go into your USER CP

and drag that addy off of your address bar
to an Empty spot on yer desktop as a LINK

then close out S-B and click on it
to see if you go directly to your CP

Once in merely double Click the S_B logo
on the top LEFT of that screen to
get to the MAIN topic Menu -wicked fast

Same thing with me for weeks now. Did malware bytes clean up along with Norton (Comcast), was still redirecting so I removed from favorites menu, and came in from Google search. Same thing. Only happens when trying to get on this site. Only happens usually the first time, and when it does I back out and come back in no problems. Only happens with this website - so far. I'm out of options, need to call my computer guy to get a solution. :bsod:
