Went there just now to look up how to map SMB shares via Terminal, and instead was greeted with a giant ad that I was required to interact with just to view the post content.
Ugh.

I was on my iMac G5 in Firefox (technically TenFourFox) with AdBlock installed.
ETA:
For FSCK'S sake. It only happens when you get to an article from Google search results.
That's dirty.

No idea. Tried in Chrome on my MacBook and the same thing happened. Not happening on Firefox on my Win8 laptop...

Incidentally, it's does it all the time in Chrome on Windows, too, even without going to the site through Google.

Wasn't there some malware a while ago that would do something like this? It never went anywhere because Apple blocked it in their malware filter from 10.6 and up, but if this is on 10.4...?
