      Do you mean like these? (Sometimes hijacks the forum links at the top too)

      You can block these if you have NoScript and add sitemeter.com as an untrusted source.

          OK I've been scanning my PC and searching for answers on my side, my pc scans do not show any vindico crap on it,but what I have found is that it could be tied to sitemeter on the host side. THE vindico site is registered as the following:

          Registrant Name: Lee Sautia
          Registrant Organization: Vindico LLC
          Registrant Street: 245 5th Ave., 21st Floor

          Registrant State/Province: New York
          Registrant Postal Code: 10016

            I would also add skimresources.com as an untrusted source. Or, better yet run NoScript in whitelist mode.

              Getting the same vindo ... yeah that rubbish. So much for anti-virus ware.
              I can't press any CTN like/thanks buttons at random times, I get redirected.
              Another problem I have an extended advertisment frame that covers half the tablet touch screen.
              If I touch the right half of my tablet touch screen I load adverts... nice....

                Is it intermittent? I see you have posted a few "Likes" since this entry. Maybe it was just a 'fly by' hijack.
                Never mind, I just saw teckat's post for the same fault.
