Mobile Forum
I used to use the mobile site all the time. Seems like within 30 seconds of being on the mobile site I get redirected to malware and locks up my phone. Been doing this for months. It also used to take you to the last page of each thread you opened. Now just takes you to the first page.
Any good apps that work just like this forum? I've given up on the mobile site.

Yes the mobile forum has an INSANE amount of malicious activity redirecting you to random malware sites. You can eliminate all.ost all the redirects if you are using mobile chrome though. Settings > site settings > force pop-ups to BLOCKED.
It's a shame there is no viable adblock for mobile chrome because these redirects are all embedded in the advertisements.

They keep finding a way to defeat the browser pop up protection. Here's the pattern
Week1 - Chrome browser has an update, no popups for a week
Week2 - Popups appear
Week3 - Chrome browser has an update, no popups for a week
Week4 - Popups appear
Rinse/repeat
The issue is they aren't actually POPUPS, they're malicious redirects of the same page which is very hard to eliminate.
