Besides taking one to the forums...ALSO pops up different porno sites and other things.

This didn't happen previously, and, I for one don't appreciate this type of behavior, and would like to ask the site owners to stop it from happening.

We have enough ads all over your site, and have to worry enough about criminal and other attacks, that your doing this shows a huge lack of respect to your intended audience.

Thanks.

No idea what links you're talking about, I've never had a pop up from clicking a link on this site and only been taken to other sites when I've accidently clicked on an advert.

The adverts help to pay for the site and make it free for us to use. If you don't like them, ignore them.

I would suggest that you run a full virus scan on your PC, you might have picked something up from elsewhere.

Logging into the boards does launch associated sites for me now depending on the device I use. So for example on my android phone it sometimes opens a camsite page that has a hungangels logo or an ImLive page - they are quite clearly pages that have some sort of association with the site. To be fair I just close them straight away anyhow. This isn't the same as clicking on an advert by choice and I suspect that's what the OP is talking about.

You 'don't appreciate this type of behavior'? You don't say.........well maybe you should ask for a refund? Or maybe you could go have a chat with these guys http://gfy.com/

Try turning off javascript.

Of course, if you're on an iphone you won't be able to navigate the forums well without java enabled, but you can always turn it on once you get to the forums.

Or bookmark the forums.

Or lodge a complaint at the aforementioned site gfy.com

Thanks, Jericho, I was trying to be. Pretty simple, and doubt I'm infected or anything, I go to hungangels.com, click on the green button at upper right to go to the Forums, see a quick flash, and...have a popped-up page of some porn site or another--see image. Was never happening prior to a week or so ago. And...yes, I am aware of how sites are funded, and, no, I wasn't clicking on anything that SHOULD pop things up. Not really sure why clicking on the button to go to the Forums now has to pop up another site, and, from the comments, guess I just never will. Thanks.891029

Why don't you just go directly to the boards thereby avoiding pop-ups:

Do you want me to send you a refund?

" I for one don't appreciate this type of behavior, " - seriously (!?!) then exercise your rights, good fellow.

A recent annoyance which started earlier this week, it always takes me to Chaturbate in a new window?
Take all comments on board though, thanks.

... doubt I'm infected or anything ...

The pop-up behavior you describe sounds exactly like malware behavior. No one else appears to be experiencing this behavior. I strongly recommend that you run some anti-malware software on your system to scan for malware. If you're running on Windows I recommend the free version of Malwarebytes. Link to their site is below.

Good luck!

Mac OS X, El Capitan. And, this is the only site that this happens with--I do run nightly scans for malware. Seems the action stopped today, as clicking on the button does not pop up anything. Thanks, whomever shut it down.

It's not shut down. It's advertising code. It's not malware, it's a pop-up that we get paid for. As I stated, where do you want your refund sending for what you pay for this site?
Thanks for the great participation over the last 7 yrs also :-)
