The last couple time i've been on here (today!), there has been a serious malfunction with this site... not like the one you get at the computer lab though.
I'm not sure if it's one of the sponsors or if somebody hacked into the site, but when i got to a page randomly, when it is almost done loading, bogus alert messages come out of nowhere and the site wants to redirect me somwhere. At work, they blocked the website it went to, but I really hope this doesn't seriously mess up somebody's computer.
Thought I'd let you guys know... hopefully something can be done soon! |

I will text Andrew in the morning and see what he says, he does work for campus IT so I am sure he will know what to do, just if he is able to do anything is the question. I will check with him and see if we can get it fixed tho. |

Usually it has to do with a malicouse script thats in the add images on sites... Seen it happen on many sites.
If it happens.. ctrl-alt-delete, task manager, and go to processes and kill the process for your browseer, ex, iexplore.exe, firefox.exe, chrome.exe |
