Hexus forum url links redirecting via ad pages?

bump to this thread - anyone on Hexus got any official feedback on this? Just noticed today that the link I put in this post of today redirects via http: // go.skimresources .com/?id=372X102514&site=forums.hexus.net&xcust=skimab_forum_hexus4&xs=1&isjs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nyti mes.com%2F2016%2F10%2F06%2Ftechnology%2Fyahoo-email-tech-companies-government-investigations.html%3F_r%3D1&xguid=659c02d220f7ab49d96a7bf107e058fb&xuuid=67223fe21b273b15e620a984a1 7194cb&xsessid=&xcreo=0&xed=0&sref=http%3A%2F%2Fforums.hexus.net%2Fhexus-news%2F363226-yahoo-confirms-500-million-user-accounts-have-been-stolen.html&pref=http%3A%2F%2Fforums.hexus.net%2Fsubscription.php&xtz=-60

Is this at the Hexus end?

Yes. Comes from scripts sourced from hexus.net that in turn call scripts from skimresources.com. Part of the ad system I expect.

Yes, he was sure 18 months ago, as the code showed. I expect the page to be a little different now.

All these posts in old feedback threads is starting to hack me off. I keep thinking something has broke :(

There has been extensive work done by the developers to fix this issue. So its probably time the thread was closed.

If there are any other genuinely broken pages, please feel free to start a new one!
