Fake Mcafee redirects &/or pop-ups?

[CEO2044]

I’m getting it on my Dell desktop at work (oops)- Google Chrome

 

[MagicDawg]

Still happening. I'll be on a page here and suddenly I'm in mcafee spam land.

 

[L4Dawg]

Anybody else getting constant warnings and redirects to McAfee or some other security warning? I'm only getting these on this site and do not have Mcafee installed on my PC.

YES

If yall can - please post screenshots.

YES

I posted this on another thread a while back. Worked like a charm for me on Google:

"Same here. I have found if I add these sites to the "Do not allow" list for pop-ups & redirects they do stop for a while. But they eventually come back using a different url. At least that has been the case a couple times so far.

If anyone here wants to try that and needs a little help learning how to do it, let me know."

To update, after needing to do the above a few times, I finally got it to stop for good using this procedure.

I've started getting it this week. Comes up after a few second delay.

 

[Willow Grove Dawg]

I am getting them constantly.

The site is almost unusable today with the constant pop-ups

I get them, but only when I am home using wifi. When I am work hooked into the internet they dont come up at all.

Thank you. I sent it on. Is it only happening on desktop?

I'm on Safari and happens about every 20 seconds or so...I get rid of it by hitting the back button....i am on a laptop.

Back for me too after a short respite. Sometimes after the page has been open 3 minutes. Sometimes after 3 seconds.

On each of the following pics look for where my cursor is placed, then click on that same spot on your PC. Only do this when you get the annoying pop-up because you will need to copy the URL (web address) of that pop-up so that you can paste in Step 7. All of these steps are easy & quick. Should only take a couple of minutes total.

Step 1 - Click on the 3 vertical dots


Step 2 - Click on Settings


Step 3 - Click on Privacy & Security


Step 4 - Click on Site Settings

Step 5 - Click on Pop-ups & Redirects


Step 6 - Click on Add


Step 7 - Copy the URL of the pop-up you got, paste it in this box then click on Add



You will most likely need to do this a few times because the bastards just change their url to get past your block, but eventually they run out and all those pop-ups stop. I think I had to do this process about 4 times.

I have AVAST and it's triggering my computer left and right. It's happened occasionally before, but almost every session today.

This site is almost unusable. Can’t even type out a post without it freezing up or deleting everything I type. Safari

Are you on a mobile device or laptop/desktop?

 

[PhredPhantom]

Use BRAVE browser. It’ll fix your problem. I never see ads or redirects.

On a I-pad safari

This week has been the worst in a while. Chrome Browser on a Windows 10 laptop. My office network blocks the full redirect to McAfee now and I think it's only a matter of time before they start blocking on3.com entirely.
