    I've never had a file redirect from this site. That would imply it's related to OS or the calling computer, don't you think? FWIW, I've always kept after security too. I still run boot-scans every few months and have seen infections get past the daily/online shield(s). AFAIK, adware can react specifically too each site.

    True, but DOD says it’s the site as not any of the government computers. They blocked the site because of potential infection, though they didn’t comment if any systems were infected and I know better than to ask.

    Over the last month or so, I've also seen the redirect using a couple of different pieces of hardware which had nothing in common location-wise.

    That's what I'm saying. It's site-side. It's not client-side. I know that's the knee-jerk response anytime someone has an issue...but that's simply not the case here.

    What OS and browser are you using? I'm trying to recreate your problem.

    After running some tests today, the filestore only comes up when clicking through links such as google or from FB. It hasn’t happened yet when coming to the site from my favorites menu.

    I get it via redirects from subscription emails from this forum. When I click on the link for the thread that has a new post, I get the redirect. I have to click on the link again to get to the actual site.

    I have email notifications disabled. However I find using google to search the site more efficient than using the search feature. The filestore comes up, I close the tab, click the link again and it’s fine for 10 or so minutes, then it returns.

    I'm sorry for the delay in getting the redirect issue addressed. I believe it is solved now. Test it out for me please and let me know if you have problems.
