Updated my MacBook to latest iOS, and it now comes up with this...never seen that on any webpage before
Guess that malware that keeps popping up is using your Mac as distributed compute for a nation state attack somewhere
Only when not logged in, as the ads are beyond acceptable in how they constantly revolve like videos.
I subscribed to the forum off the back of saving a load of money at Halfords with the membership card. I think the ads are horrific though and put new members who are not necessarily power users off using the forum. Until the Halfords shop I just stopped using the forum for many months because I couldn't be bothered with the Ads.
If I use a browser without AdBlock, the ads really are horrific! You lose 2/3 of the screen to the ads on the left and right sides with only 1/3 of content in the middle, which has it's own strip of adverts as well! Most of the ads seem to be video or some kind of animation that really kills the computer as well, making the experience terrible. If I was a first time user without much technical knowledge, it would really put me off.
The purpose of the ads is to help pay for the hosting and running of the site. But you know that already.
The purpose of the forum is for it's members but as with so much in life, very little is for free As El said, ads help with updates, extras, hosting fees, tech support, domain fee's etc etc, Go daddy isn't named sugar daddy, people gotta be paid, although there is a site called sugardaddy.com. Don't look unless you are a hussy and easily bought. Subscription also helps but the best deal is the premium membership which gives you not only subscription benefits but a Halfords discount card where those who have used them, can make the entire money back on their first purchase.
