Hey guys, the forum that has this problem is http://www.discusstheweb.net.
Other people are not having it, but I'm having a problem only on that site, which means my PC is not infected.

Let's see, when I click Home, I get something like http://linkclk.com/adfly/goto.php?i=%7B ... Findex.php.

When I click Members, I get something like http://linkclk.com/adfly/goto.php?i=%7B ... erlist.php.

Could anyone enlighten me? I don't understand where the problem is, my forum or my computer, as it happens only for me, only on that particular forum.
 
I don't get any issue. It takes me to the board offline page like it normally should.

What is it doing for you?
 
Try to hover on a link, could you please tell me what you see?

Thanks and cheers,
Moneyman
 
When I hover over the links nothing 'infected' shows up.

Is there some sort of ad or something that shows up for you? I have a paid ad blocker plugin in my Firefox so if an ad shows up for you or something I could disable adblock and check for you.

Although the source code seems to be fine.
 
The forum is closed so we can't see much, I hovered over all the links possible as guest and nothing.

Could be a certain page is infected.
 
Check your computer first. Your board seems fine to me, I think you may have AdWare.
 
That is very odd. I see ascii stuff where pictures should be using the first link.
Have you got any plugins, themes, browsers, browser plugins, missing browser updates, mybb not up to date that does that. Plus I don't see any linkclk.com stuff anywhere. Have you tried emptying your browser cache as well.

That's all i can say atm.
 
As other have mentioned, it is not the forum. It is most likely your computer and more specific your browser. Deactivate all your plugins, run a malware scan ( I would suggest Malware bytes anti malware or SUPERantispyware ).
