Has anybody had a problem where when clicking on a topic to view, a screen pops up telling me that I just won a prize of some kind making it impossible to view the UH topic?

Get AdBlock. It pisses them off, but it cuts out ads. You can pause it, if needed.

It just happened to me. Looks like Ugly Hedgehog has been hacked.

Yes. So far I have won over a total of $6000. Wonder if I can buy a 1D with it?

Are you using a smartphone? I get those on my smartphone about twice a year.. The prize winning should be ignored. To get the "so called" prize and what they want you to do, just isn't worth it. IMO.

It started yesterday - iPhone / IPad - App Store - Addsoff and Phishingoff for safari - $3.00 for both. It's also nice to get rid of adds. FYI - the thread from yesterday is not up anymore, 4 pages long now.

I don't get any that prevent me from seeing UH but there are ads put between the posts. But I'm guessing that's for the benefit of UH.

I'm just relaying info from yesterdays thread - it got into chrome for some. A hog downloaded a free copy of ccleaner.

Just added AdBlock. Seems to eliminate the problem, at least for now!
