Annoying ads
When I open CorvetteForum, I get a lot of annoying ads and new pages open.
Digintv , and animated girls, lol
What causes this ?
It doesn't happen with another websites.

Sounds like you have an infected machine. I would suggest you run an anti-malware program from a trusted and well-known source.

Well I've used Malwarebytes. But you may have to do more work depending upon how infected your machine is.
I'm just saying, don't go to Google's search and download just anything. That's also how these types of issues start.
This issue didn't come from CorvetteForum, atleast not knowingly, unless there is a rogue ad in the network - which can come from many sources (like Google's own ads). If this came from CorvetteForum, you'd have a couple thousand others infected.
This likely came through something you downloaded or a a less crediable website. Even then, your PC's browser and security software allowed it when it shouldn't have.

Download malware bytes, scanned and found 9 threats.
I'm browsing now, and they are gone. Hopefully
Thanks a lot for your help.
