This website (and only this website) keeps having pop up ads that open like 2-3 different tabs and randomly relocating me to a webpage with a red screen and an "internet security alert" that tries to fullscreen me and they play audio I put back on my adblocker and suddenly it's reading that it's blocked like 20 things, which i'm assuming is these pop ups because when i have had my adblocker on here before it only blocked like maybe 5-6 things. So this isn't usual.
I dont even usually have adblock on bc i know it's against proboards terms of service or whatever and they have their own anti adblocker pop up but I feel like with all of these.... abnormal pop ups right now it's necessary. Is the website/proboards somehow like, infected with something?

I've had them on my phone before bt this is the first time anything like this has happened on my laptop and it's pretty suspicious it's only this website. (Haven't checked other pb websites yet or their forum but i might later cause i'm about to leave.)

Report it to ProBoards. Also, other PB sites do the same. Pop up ads are common on PB forums, so it’s not only one PB site. ads.proboards.com/ad-report.htmlOr you could always download the AdBlock extension through Google Chrome & it’ll block the ads. |

The problem is these pop ups are other webpages/redirections. Adblock does work against them though but I will try to see if i can report them thank you. |

This happens to me too. Every so often I get redirected to a page that says to click here because I've won a prize from Google.
