Are you sure that this is from HF? If so are you certain that when you pressed space it didn't do a click?

Yeah there's a lot of malicious advertising around here. I sometimes hear people talking and echoing a lot

Someone else posted a thread about this earlier.
I honestly didn't believe it because there were no pictures.
Now that I see this... something needs to be done.

Well, we are ub3rs, so ads do not even show up.
We can't see what they can see, so yeah...

Firstly, iMesh is not a virus. Secondly, look at the threads posted on the rules forum before posting. Lastly, use an ad blocker.

Times like this is when people should know that they need various things (ad blocker etc) to be safe. There on a hacking forum....

Then why did Omni even enable ads for this forum if everyone here is supposed to know about Ad blocker and use it, idiot?

Its ok. Youll understand how to run a website someday.

Because he gets paid. No matter how many people view the ads. Everything's about the money.

That awkward moment when one of your tabs says "How to lose weight"

Not if you're using an ad blocker.
