Ok, i'm not sure why zaclan.org keeps doing this. When i use IE9 it doesn't, but when I use Mozilla Firefox internet explorer it always does. When i goto the website and select login i get this website continuously popping up.
http://www.solar-america.org/o61/home-solar-quote/?reqid=1925678&cid=316&campid=565&oid=61&affid=125&s1=103082&s2=1452941890&s3=&s4=&s5=
Why???
Also, after I login if i read a few threads and say i want to shoutbox something, I click the shoutbox and it comes up again. All my pop up settings are blocked. Why are links at zaclan.org redirecting to this website all the time?
Anyone else having this problem?

im not, but try resetting your firefox, go to appdata and delete your user files to start fresh again.

It sounds like a program from your end - maybe do a scan for adware.

Adblock-Plus for the win! So f*cking Youtube can never spam me ever again with their sh*t advertisements when watching videos.

If the links that you are clicking are underlined, it means it is something from your end. I suggest following Joseph's, Ninja's and for future browsing, Vulture's advice. Go to the programs installed on your PC and remove anything that seems foreign and unwanted, and do the same for in your browser under your add-on section.

Well, I have 3 types of malware/adware/spyware scan and removal programs. Nothing shows up. It all started when Carnage posted the vote page for the new council. This website came up when I tried to vote. Ever since then it comes up now when I select any link at our website. Something may have been installed on my Firefox, like I said I don't have this problem with IE9. I'll have to dig into my Firefox explorer settings and folders to see if I can find anything. |

You could always wipe and re-install Firefox.

Yes, it was Carnage's fault then. He is linking you to weird malicious websites just so you can vote. After you register your vote, he then hacks your account in this forums with massive pop up spams. Bad Cornage! Bad! xD

im good with firefox, or get ZA Firefox lol jks.
Go to this site: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
and it will show all plugins installed in your firefox un-install or disable any unknows ones.
if that doesnt work, click on Help then click Restart with Add-ons disabled. and try it.
if nothing is working so far do this, go to addons and disable any addons or extensions that might have been added, it should be in the Tools tab.
then type in firefox address bar, "about:about" then have a look around some of the stuff there and its quite simple to fix the problem.

I don't believe its an add if you goto the website. I don't know why only my Mozilla Firefox explorer keeps opening that website up no matter what link I select at zaclan.org. its completely random too. My Droid x2 phone has no problem and my IE9 browser has no problem. Just doesn't make sense. I'll keep trying to figure it out at some point slim. |

a. Firefox plugins
b. systemwide internet plugin (common maleware/pups)
c. hidden process
d. hijacked connection (unlikely)
1. try using a diff browser (IE, chrome etc...) if it goes away, its option a.
2. if still there, load up malwarebytes, ( malwarebytes), run a scan and then try again with all the browsers (if any changes double check the plugins)
3. if still there, run Combofix, ( ComboFix), download and run as administrator. try again with all browsers, if still persistent pm me and ill tv and fix the issue myself |

Ill try this combo fix program, but I already have ran a malwarebytes check twice and Spybot and advance system care along with my antivirus. The source when all this started was the website carnage used for the council voting. If you could, start there. |
