Think I found the odd links. They were in this post http://www.motoringalliance.com/forums/362010-post12127.html Took one to a Yahoo branded Flickr page. I'm not sure if this is due to Flickr adding stuff to the image address or not. Off to test.

K. About 30-60 min ago I couldn't even get to the site. it did the whole ww2. thing and wouldn't load at all. I gave up and came back just now. All is now good in the hood. But still what the heck?!

I also could not access the site today from early morning until just now. It was ww2 thing and I would get virus alerts. Very very strange going ons to say the least. I should add that these problems were on my iPad and also on my iPhone 6.

I'm digging. This is particularly thorny as I'm not finding much to go on. Having a lot of difficulty repeating the issue.

Sometimes site-redirects and the like are due to some nasty JavaScript embedded in an advertisement. The owner of the ad doesn't know it exists, as it gets injected by middlemen ad brokers.
Really hard to track down, as the bad ad rotates, and probably has gone through multiple brokers before being sold to the end user. -

Happened this afternoon on my android phone, sent me to:
ww2.motoringalliance.com
Redirect to:
youforgottorenewyourhosting.com/motoringalliance
Redirect to:
An internet direct company, efaucets.com came up a couple of times.
Did this with my favorites link and when typing direct into the address bar.
And now the efaucets add is at the bottom of my page. -

Tried it again and : 'One Moment...' then to goodmayor.com
Weird stuff this. I've had no problems today using good old fashioned IE.
Zapski's take on this makes sense as the hole thing started a few days ago when I selected M/A from my favorites and Norton immediately blocked a virus. Got that dealt with then retried M/A and all this silliness started.
