Why do the readers get redirected to Badoo?
-
Hello!
All of a sudden my readers (those that are not logged in) getting redirected to Badoo.com as soon as they open the site?
Is this an odd problem with your ads, or have you gotten hacked by Badoo. com?The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Thank you.
I think it is a formatting error in an ad for Badoo.
It redirects only non-logged in readers. So I guess it is a link somewhere in an ad that does something nasty that it should not. -
Sounds like they didn’t close the link when they put the ad in. That’s not good. But it’s not malicious.
-
I can’t see the problem myself, whether I’m logged in or not. Are you still having trouble?
-
I can’t either. I did the same thing and checked using Firefox 11 and IE8 both when logged in and when logged out and then I flagged this thread.
-
We did some checking ourselves, and we believe that it was a wrongly coded ad. Because it only affected 3 readers (that we know of). It would kind of explain it being rather random since the ads come up seldom.
But I did not for obvious reason see any ad from Badoo myself since I am constantly logged in. -
It looks like the ad has been corrected, but please do let us know if this ever happens again.
