For anyone that uses Google Chrome on your phone to view FTE, do yall ever have issues with random stuff popping up?
Everytime I come here at minimum I will get a "you're today's lucky winner" or a "your Samsung device has been chosen" sometimes it will go with a "your device has 3 viruses, download this anti virus"
Sometimes I get all 3, sometimes it will be only one. But this is the only website it happens with. And I can't just hit back and get away from it, I've got to completely close out of the browser and start over.

If they come back clean, than it must be fte's forum software has been hit by some kind of malware virus. I know the hummingbad malware has been hitting everyone running Android OS. This shouldn't effect the iPhone iOS. There mobile sites iis must have been popped as this seems to only be from mobile devices, sounds like.

for me i just looked at it as more of a popup banner... gets right in the middle of the phone screen and wont let you X off it.. then eventually redirects my phone to a new page... its very annoying...

yep.. you would think FTE would like to keep its users here instead of being redirected to unrelated pages...
