Hello. I followed a couple of external links just now but was redirected to Buffalo Wild Wings and some other business via <https://forward.bhgshop.net/redirect>. Are these forums responsible for such redirection?
I ask because the redirections resemble malware, and I am concerned about the security of my system. Thank you.
Edit: Phew! The problem seems to be with the malformed link (that I am no longer allowed to edit) in that post. It's missing a colon, so Firefox automatically attempts <https.com>, which is owned by the aforementioned advertiser.
Apologies for the false alarm. Take care, folks.
