Update. Nope, it wasn't extensions.

Update 2. What's weird it works in "private" mode

Update 3, It's Kaspersky, it seems I got something that is not-a-virus HEUR:AdWare.Script.Redirect.gen and Kaspersky is blocking it. Now I'll have to dig where did I got it from

-----------------------




Here's how it looks after the Firefox update I had 2 days ago, but I find it to be strangely quiet here, in two days nobody asked this question so I wonder did that happen to anyone else? And what is the remedy? (apart from using another browser, and yes if anyone wonder it happens only in Firefox, it works fine in Opera and Chrome)

No problem here, but I use Firefox on linux

 

I'll try to disable every extension to see how it goes. I was fiddling with VPNs the other day but it worked fine until the update so I assumed it must be update then.

Yeah, I think this topic can be deleted as it's resolved and I don't think it's going to be helpful to others.

Or do I need to do that myself? I mean delete the topic?

 

You can write "Solved" in the title at the top or give someone a "Best Answer." Then the thread is closed.
Deleting the thread is not possible.

 

Is that the kind of annoying adware that redirects you from the page you want to be on to some garbage page? Can I get kaspersky for iPad and will it work with chrome for iPad?
