Found another one of the super annoying ones while in the workshop.

I'm using chrome on windows 10. I couldn't inspect it because the minute I clicked it opened a new tab. It tried to redirect me no matter where I clicked on the page.
Edit: It showed up again after I refreshed, and directed me to a website called 'Reimage plus'.

Caught one using Google Chrome on Windows. Couldn't inspect source without it redirecting me to its site, but here's the ad in question.

They/them/theirs pronouns please. Also if you'd prefer to call me by name instead of by my username, my favorite name is Scarlet.
I hoard Crimson Emperors. Will pay 6-8kt per Emperor.

Got this ad about an hour ago, while I was in class.
I wasn't able to right-click this ad, since it would immediately redirect me if I clicked in any way on the page (except for when clicking other links). It did this twice, but as far as I'm aware nothing was downloaded to my computer.
Here's a screenshot, link goes to my Drive. The McAfee ad.
It's basically the same thing that was causing issues before (Ads by WGX). I looked it up and it's a virus of some sort; could it be infecting FR's or hivework's servers?

Well this just happened a moment ago. Did not click it because I did not want my computer infected with something.
My browser is Chrome and my OS is Windows. if I encounter again I'll get a screencap of an ad source but for now I just have one of the pop out ad.
got another of the wgx ones but it got away before i could inspect element - i'm using chrome, on chromeOS, so not windows for once :s
got another popup ad, forgot to grab a screenshot so sorry! it looks like the ones that others are getting.
