    Thinking it was a Google issue, I dusted off the keys that took me to the yahoo home page and had the same redirect to filestore.

    Time to track down these hackers and hang 'em up by their whoopies.

    Just had it happen again on the link to the above post. Hadn't received any other updates lately. I'm just going to quit using the links for now...

    Time heals all wounds...but it usually leaves a pretty big scar.

    I just had it happen as well from my cell phone. Did a google search for "hammock forum", clicked on "today's posts" link and got redirected to the file store.

    I just reproduced it also but then I went to try it a second time and it worked. Dang, how can I troubleshoot something if it starts working?

    Same here. When I got my link to activate my membership, it took me to a webpage that my security and malware protection blocked. I navigate now only through a saved link from the forum site off of my browser.

    On vBulletin systems this is usually caused by an altered or fake plugin on the board software. I had this problem on one of my sites. You can read up on a recent conversation about this here :http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=323931 The most serious of these are the "Federal" variety that will collect email and passwords. I'm sure attroll is on the case!

    This problem should have been resolved before Christmas.

    Just had this happen to me again at 7:12 AM on 2-15-17 when I went through Chrome and typed in hammockforums in the search. Ended up at the dreaded "my file store" page. It's back!

    Could you please tell me the search criteria and which link you choose in the google search results, please?
