Virus infested spam site.

Is this site legit? Cause no sooner than I have logged in I get junk on my phone spamming me and I have to close the browser window if I'm using Chrome or Samsung. If I am browsing via Facebook browser it's more stable. Disappointing start to joining your group. All i wanted do do was get info on procedures to start my barn find RX7 that hasn't run in at least 20 yearshttps://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...015f278915.png

I have also been dealing with a few pop-ups and "site redirects" while browsing rx7club, both on my iPhone and on my PC

On iPhone, one pop-up spam was "krogerrewardcenteron.icu"
Another was referring to me by my internet service provider name.

Any ideas on how to avoid these types of interruptions?

I access the website on Chrome and use the AD Block extension. You can use that or the newer uBlock Orgin extension as well on Chrome and Firefox. If you have an Android phone it's pretty simple to set Chrome to your default browser and install the extension.

I have the adblock app installed on my phone and browse via safari. No popups or issues here.

Same here, running ADBlock on Chrome, no issues like you mention.

keep in mind it may be a stored cookie on your phone being triggered. So it might have been installed by another site, but gets triggered by this one. Some people just have too much time on their hands and not enough in prison it seems...
