Everytime I enter the forums on MAL I'm getting redirected to some page advertising various shit. And I mean every time.

It there something wrong with my phone or are the other mobile-using members facing the same problem?

It is less common (for me atleast) but MAL has been suffering by this for the past week, hell, when it started all I saw was porn ads.

I have a HTC phone :0 and each time I come on this site I put desktop mode on because I have unlimited data and mobile version is a mess.

I don't run into any problems

Alack, it is not free. My advice to you is to find a free antivirus program that will block that shit.

I have installed 3 different antivirus apps. None of them keep me from being redirected

I also always use the desktop version sinceI don't like the one for mobile. But it is while using the desktop that this happens

Ya every time I try to update my episodes watched, I get redirected. Sometimes just having myanimelist open in a different tab causes it as well. I am using my ZTE zmax, this seems to be a phone issue mainly.

I am having the same issue. After opening certain pages, I get redirected to a couple different sites. One wants me to update Adobe Flash - obviously not going to download or click anything.

I am on my laptop.

What version of Chrome are you running and have you tested other browsers?

I'm running: 44.0 Firefox & 48.0.2564.103m Chrome and don't get these pop-ups.

If this doesn't happen on any other browsers, try scanning your comp/try reinstalling Chrome.

It's happening in Chrome, same version as you. Didn't happen in Firefox 43.01. Ran quick scan, no issues. Full scan in progress.

I've censured hell because it was in the title. Having a "nice" facade will not piss off any moderators lol

I've experienced no problems with ads on iOS 9.3... Must be exclusive to Android.
