For the last 30 mins or so I have been getting full screen ads for PS4 on the front page. Clearing cache, clearing system cace rebooting made no difference, but disabling java script does.

This only happens on MR homepage so it might be a legitimate ad, but it makes the site unusable for me.

My system had a clean install yesterday so there shouldnt be anything nasty on my system.


Anyone else getting this problem ?

Are you located in Germany? And is this on mobile or desktop?

We've had a few reports on mobile, and we're trying to track down the bad ad.

We did identify the ad yesterday and our provider was working to remove it from the rotation. Haven't seen any other reports of it showing up, but please let us know if you're still seeing it.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
