Spam links appearing

As bus been hacked? Spam links are appearing on the board.

It isn't happening when I use bus on my phone. And I've checked my laptop for viruses, it isn't happening on any other website I go on.

Does it still happen if you use BUS through a different browser?

[imme]

I don't know. I only have Firefox on my laptop.

Have you tried clearing your cache?

[imme]

Yes. I ran c cleaner.

That looks like a spyware ad to me - not a virus by definition. Have you made sure your spyware detection has been updated? I would suggest running Spybot or a similar program. I'm on my PC right now and using Chrome, and do not see these ads.

I've downloaded malwarebytes. So far it hasn't found anything on my computer.

I haven't got anything like that (using Chrome).

[imme]

i'm using internet explorer and no ads are appearing. there aren't any malware or viruses on my computer. I might try uninstalling forefox and see if that helps.

i've uninstalled firefox, and have installed chrome and there are no a links. so i'll stick with chrome.

Firefox has a known exploit with Flash that makes it vulnerable to attacks. Installing Chrome was the best thing to do, but you should run CCleaner and MalwareBytes again to check for problems.
