As of today (1st Nov 2014) I get constantly sent to update my flash video player and Java software, even though I don;t have Java installed.  Also, when I leave the site I get directed to a seemingly official Firefox page which is not in fact official.

 

Is this deliberate, is it a deal CF struck up to generate revenue, or has the place been hacked?

 

Seems quite sophisticated, the pages look very genuine but the legal text is wrong.

 

Yes, it may well be my machine but it only started today (did not happen least night) and it only happens on CF.

 

 

My PC is getting reset for AW anyway, if you think it's me then I will blitz my pc sooner...

I've seen the bogus popup for Flash installer too.  Sites that are playing ads that use Flash player and have links to perps site cause popup.  Ignore the popup and be careful of all installer prompts is best advice.

All bug reports and help requests please include your: OS, CPU, AV, .NET Framework versions along with a description of the issue (include screenshots of error if possible).  It should go without having to say ... make sure you are using the latest build before submitting bug reports or asking for help.

Heads up. I removed "hacked" from the title so people aren't misled. Everything is safe folks!
