I'm honestly positive SWLS is having massive problems of late.  They have some malicious popup ad as a sponsor that has hacked the site.  It redirects you to a 3rd party site that is crap.  Last week a similar occurrence happened that directed to some nair products for woman.  Now another site.  I am pretty sure that it's not my end with the problem.  I would contact Ben since his knowledge would help. 

I am using firefox 3 as a browser.  I understand Princess Lei (PL) and others had a similar problem last week.

It flashed at me too, but my blocker stopped it.

It is not on your end PPWI, it is a site issue.  The redirection problems are an unintended consequence of having sponsors.  We are working to fix it, so please be patient.  I apologize for the inconvenience, the same thing happened to me today.  We will fix it asap.

To date I have been fortunate but was redirected today and an annoying whistling is happening along with other just annoying pop ups. 

Very frustrating... Undecided

I've pulled Chitika ads off the site, and replaced them with Google. I'm hoping this stops any more ad problems.
