Is it just me or has someone hacked/screwed up their web forums, they are currently re-directing you to another site.

Yes, there is a problem. The home page seems OK but I get diverted when I try to access the forums.

Good to know it's not just me then, wish they had contact details or I'd email one of the maintainers (if they are not already aware !).

A quick solution until the issue has been fixed, is to disable "meta refresh" in your browser. In IE6 it is found here: Tools - Internet Options - Security - Custom Level - Miscellaneous - Allow META REFRESH. Then disable it.

I'd guess other browsers have a similar setting somewhere.

It's a hack alright. It sends you to hacker pages and tries to install something. It diabled my AVG virus detection.

I take it you are using Internet explorer ? May be best to do a scan then even though I use Mozilla.

I went there with Mozilla Firefox, without any problems I could see. It is either fixed or it only stuffs up IE ?

Nope Still the same, and I always use Firefox, so its not an IE problem, I scanned all my PC's and Adwared them to be sure after reading about the AVG disable, but nothing, so... Now getting AVRfreaks forum withdrawal :)
