MacRumors frontpage hacked?

[cmcbridejr]

We're aware of the situation and trying to pin down what ad is causing it. A screenshot of the ad or of the whole front page (if either of those is possible...there seem to be differing reports about what happens when users attempt to load the front page) would be the most useful thing we need to help chase this down, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Our apologies for the difficulties, and please bear with us until we get this cleaned up.

Here is a screenshot and URL

If you're so convinced it's the site, why isn't this forum flooded with questions about a malicious site warning? Thousands of people visit this site every day, and 2 people have complained about it. It's not the site, it's your machine.

WRONG!

I'm using Safari 4 on an iMac and have not left this site or been on any other site when this happened.

We are looking into this

I am the ad manager for Macrumors, and we are looking into every ad that has run on the site in the last few days - bear with us as we dig into this.
Thank you for your great support for this site - if you happen to get a screenshot of the actual ad - that would help us tremendously!

Thank you all...

It started to happen again at 6:57 pm today just as I got onto the macrumors page...I hit BACK and made it back to the macrumors page.....(whew!)..no idea which ad it was but something is still out there...again on IE and a Windows machine

This just happened to me when I loaded macrumors.com, it redirected to the following web site.

Yep, I was just reading the news on the front page here about the Snow Leopard business and BAM, you can read my post below by hitting the link. Sorry, I posted it in the wrong section.

I am using Safari 4 and nothing looked out of the ordinary on the Mac Rumors page to me and I did not click on ANYTHING!

I've pulled the ad network that I think is delivering those ads. If you see one after this post, let me know.
