AirwickWithCheese Posted September 8, 2019 Share #2 Posted September 8, 2019 I think so.... The smileys load very slow at times. Wheels has left us vulnerable to attack while he's riding up and down New England in his 800,000 automobile. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddmaxx ★ Posted September 8, 2019 Share #3 Posted September 8, 2019 Nope. No male ware, no female ware. Nothing like I get else where. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's scanned regularly, no way they would let that slip by. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It happens every few months and it only happens while using your site. It has happened several times in the past year and never when accessing any other site.

I have Verizon at home, not sure if it’s happened or not at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kohl’s was genius to make itself an Amazon return center. I’d have no other reason to go into the store, otherwise. But now, every time I go in, I buy Christmas wrapping paper. Regardless of season. I am conditioned to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their 10-30% off thing works pretty well too. Providing a variable reward is supposed to be the principle for hooking people on lots of stuff. Also, they do pretty good clearance deals. You can pretty reliably stock up at the end of the various seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not really one of 10 lucky winners of a Gift card. At a similar time frame - once every month or two - my iPhone browser gets hijacked by a similar bullshit "you won" spam ad - only on the SW site - that requires me to kill the Safari instance to clear it. While not technically malware, it is awful. Clearly not SW's fault, since it is being pushed out most likely by the ad server???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdc2000 Posted September 13, 2019 Share #13 Posted September 13, 2019 Kzoo - If you are referring to popup windows, then it MAY be possible. However, I think others would have complained by now, so it may be from something else. What browser are you using? You may want to try a different one. SW - If those ads are from third-party ad servers, then it is possible that the popups are coming from them. ALL third-party ad servers host malware - there are NO exceptions. You can get popups from any major news site that uses them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may be true; however, they are coming from Google, who now runs 86.3% of the planet, so I fear we need to trust them. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdc2000 Posted September 13, 2019 Share #15 Posted September 13, 2019 I don't trust Google any farther than I can throw their datacenters. However, there is not much you can do about the ad servers. As long as you have up-to-date software, the most you may have to do is reboot your device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
