    Copytechnet forwarding to another website

    Every 10 minutes or so I get forwarded to www. gogardenclub .com
    I've never heard of it, and never knowingly clicked on it.

    Is it possible that they're one of our sponsors, and I'm accidentally clicking a border link? Are we being spammed somehow? I tried purposely entering that website in the address line, and it comes up as "Service Unavailable".

    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

    Not seeing that problem - did you not get your vaccinations?

    Perhaps not. Malwarebytes didn't find anything. I purged the cache and temporary internet files. It only happens when I jump from one open page to another tab. Still hunting ... =^..^=

    Firefox, as usual. I purged the cache again and re-started. It seems to be OK now. =^..^=

    the redirect is legit. just happened twice to me. see you guys in a couple weeks. I don't mess around with this crap. definitely malware looking for a misstep.

    It's not gone, just intermittent. It only seems to be hitting Copytechnet. =^..^=

    You might be infected with some type of adware is not yet aware of. You might want to try adding Adblock Plus.

    No single malware fighter gets them all. You might try ADWCleaner and Superantispyware. You can find them on www.bleepingcomputer.com which has lots of info on malware, viruses, etc.

    Is it possible that they're one of our sponsors, and I'm accidentally clicking a border link? Are we being spammed somehow? I tried purposely entering that website in the address line, and it comes up as "Service Unavailable".

    I'm having the same issue with Firefox that started yesterday May 14, 2015. Redirecting me to the same site but it only happens when I open a website in another tab. Also happens when using IE. I've cleared the cache, restarted etc. In IE when I open another website in a new tab the previous tab gets redirected to this gogardenclub website or I get a 503 error.

    Thanks for any help!
