The annoying MyLot redirects and popups are driving me mad!

It looks like he malicious code or ad that is causing redirects and popups will make people leave MyLot. These redirects have forced installation of unnecessary software. I'm attaching a screenshot. I'm sure admin can easily find the source of these ads as he only adds the ad codes on the site. @mylotbugs

Easily, perhaps not. I think blocking any access to www3.mylot.com will cut down on the crud to a degree.

@JolietJake No, but it is the site that the "leaving mylot" page button quite often takes you to... before the pop-ups or worse appear. Read this history from the bottom upwards...

@JolietJake The rest of the URL is what does the damage, let me see if I can get one here off my Android Chrome browser history...

@JolietJake Exactly my point. How can you find an eel or a chameleon like that? But blocking it should stop the browser trying to access it and nip the redirection before it goes...

We aren't suppose to take screen shots, they're not able to trace them anyway.

This seems like a real problem and I am not sure that I understand it or the responses here-

@JolietJake I understand that. And that's why admin should be looking at other options.
