What did you google to get that? I just tried and was taken the to forums both times.

i had something similar happen last night looking for the stud size for the exhaust manifold... out of the ~10 links I clicked through google, one sent me elsewhere.

Why does everyone go to the site through google? I type in w-body.com into my address bar and it comes right here.

[RobertISaar]

using google as a search function for the site is much more effective than the forum's search function.

[Heartbeat1991]

It happened to me last week.

[runt]

You guys are nuts.

 

Just used the google as the site:w-body.com search and still couldn't make it happen.

 

Odd.

[primergray]

Haven't tested at home, and we're blocked from a lot of things, but I've seen the blocked message and had to get to a link via cache in Regular Google...although I seem to recall that it only happened on results that were old threads, between 2007-2011..ish.

it only happened to me in maybe 1/10 searches/links, so I doubt it will be easy to track down.

so at work everything goes through google, i typed wbody without the dash, like always, the link showed up with all the sub forums listed, clicked, big blocked web page thing we get, said it was trying to take me to adultfriendfinder. i clicked back, checked the link again, clicked again got the site as normal. It has never happened to me before. i will have to try and view the forum on my phone and not my computer, they take blocked content serious around here lol.

Interesting, I've never tried it. But then again, the search function here has always pulled through

[Stevo]

Same thing happened for me as well in a way. It takes me to an advertising site with pop-ups like crazy.

 

What is different is that when I log in here and open up another tab a re-google it. The link takes me here.

This happened to me on mobile w body.

Just tried googling 'wbody.com'. Clicked the hit for the 'Activity Stream' and Avast on my PC gave me a popup message it'd 'blocked a malicious website'. The real w-body.com page did load however.

I have gotten a page that wants me to downloaded the lasted update from Adobe Flash and says my laptop is not up to date. Why cant the Chinese leave us alone? What did us W-body guys ever do to anyone?

[Nas Escobar]

Well GM did sue a chinese company for copying the Daewoo Matiz. Look up the Chery QQ

[Euro]

Sooooo stop googling wbody? just go to the site directly..

click at your own risk, but the first time I hit that link, I got redirected to at least two other websites before I closed the tab.

 

the second time I entered that URL, it went to the correct page:

 

http://www.w-body.com/showthread.php/78893-Proper-Exhaust-Stud-and-Nut-Size!!

[runt]

Huh. Both times I went straight to the page.

 

But.

 

I also use ABP, Disconnect and other Firefox add-ons so maybe the redirect doesn't happen because of that?

[88red4cyl]

I got the aff redirect also using Chrome on my phone.. It started going to the right w-body.com address and then the address changed to random letters all of a sudden and took me to aff...

[2001goldGTP]

for whatever reaszon even if i type in the url chrome takes me through google, its something with the way its set up at my work. i can go to any website i want as long as its not deemed to be porn or malware type stuff. i have not had the issue on my phone.

[Nas Escobar]

Then people will stop searching topics and start reposting the same questions... Well more at least. I notice the pop up/redirect thing only happens on the phone. I have no issues with it on the PC

perhaps? using IE11(I know, I know) and it's happening here.

I only browse via PC using IE11... maybe i'll download the newest firefox without any other additions and see if it suffers the same.

Firefox or Chrome with Ad Block Plus. I'm pretty sure IE has ABP available for it as well. You could try that first if you like IE.

 

As far as the virus thing, I do get that pop up on here and some other forums when google searching. Not sure why.
