I went to open a link and got a pop-up that redirects to this: http://worldsocialsurvey.com/aufl/in...Fordforums.com
It also wants your mobile number to spam the hell out of you...

Not something we have done - you'll need to point us to the thread so it can be removed.
If it isn't in a thread and just appeared then it's one of the new wave of browser hijackers that have been prevalent of late being used within your browser. Cheers Russ Cheers Russ

Then it is viral activity - there are a number of them about currently that show little pop-ups with links to advertising of various sorts. They aren't the easiest thing to get rid of but you need to right click on it and see what the pop up is called and then google removal of it.
Cheers Russ

Thanks guys, trying on a different computer and IP addy without any issues. I will look into removing these problems when I get home.
