Plus PiHole on the whole network for general hygiene and protection of all users. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Gwiwer Posted July 9 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 9 (edited) No apparent hijacking issues here on Mac OS 13.6.7 browsing with Safari 17.5 No apparent hijacking issues either on the phone using iOS 17.5.1 The only issues being encountered, and these are long term ones, relate to speed of page service and upload of content which almost always generates a "Community Temporarily Unavailable" message. The content does upload but cannot be seen by me until the server has cooled down a little a few minutes later. Others can apparently see it as content has been rated whilst the site is unavailable to me. Noticeably worse if the new post is the first one on a new page. I run MacPaw AdBlock as standard which may or may not be a factor. The only adverts I see are hobby-related with one exception which I reported to @AY Mod many moons ago.

I've had this several times as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkSG Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 If this is caused by the Polyfill takeover, then you need to bear in mind that, as the Ars report linked to earlier makes clear, the malicious code is designed to only trigger at certain times and only to certain users. So "it isn't happening to me" is not, unfortunately, a helpful data point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators AY Mod Posted July 22 Administrators Share Posted July 22 As part of a test process I have switched users back from the IPS Default theme to the normal style. If you do get any instances of this browser takeover/pop-up arise please let me know with a screenshot and what browser (including the version) you are using. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators AY Mod Posted August 8 Administrators Share Posted August 8 Further testing will take place shortly so if you are not a Gold or Premium user and experience any problems can you let me know here please? Ideally a screenshot with which browser version and OS (and version) you are using. The ideal would be to know which ads displayed before an issue arose but the problem is you don't know until it's happened. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
