Ad's taking over pages
Published 08/03/2015 @ 19:30:18, By antp
On my laptop some of the ad redirected to its own page:
ip.casalemedia.com
When I hover the mouse at actual ad at its own page, it came up:
ads.simpli.fi
www.microsoftranslation.com
ip.casalemedia.com
When I hover the mouse at actual ad at its own page, it came up:
ads.simpli.fi
www.microsoftranslation.com
You mean it redirects if you just passs the mouse over the ad, and opens it like if you clicked?
Can you make screenshots of the page before redirection and after redirection?
I should be able to block these, there was previously a case like that that I reported.

No, sometimes it redirect on its own. On the ad banner with the blank background, I just hover the mouse pointer at the ad itself and I read what it says on the status bar at the bottom. Between its redirection, it will just display blank white background before the ad comes up. Also, when I hover the back arrow, it will display address information. I'll try to make some more grabs when it happens.

No, this is the updated version. I'm just on Windows XP (no money to update, wah ;-;)
I thought that even on XP they redesigned the tabs to look more "rounded"

Do you have that problem only with that ad? Or with several other "ad choice" ads?
Do that ad sometimes display correctly? Or is it the same problem each time it is that one?
And for others:
Do someone else see that ad either with or without problem?

Sometimes, but not very often with other ChoiceAd that redirect a page of own as well. I'll try to find out other domain name that does this.

It actually varies. It's usually different ads at different times (content means nothing)

The thing is that if it is often/always the same ad, I can block it, but it if it is due to something else than the ad itself, blocking it will be useless.
There was previously one case of an ad causing problems (but just for Swedish users it seems), but that was systematically the same ad.
I asked about the Firefox version since it seemed a problem that occurred on old versions, like an old version before the v35 (current being v36) it could also be an incompatibility with that.

I did get page redirect 2 or 3 time in succession after the original blank page. There was no indication of the domain name redirect after the original page redirect, just the imcdb.org domain name.

@Atom > I'm not sure what I can do
Maybe caused by an old version of the browser? (as you were using an old version of Android if I remember well?)
At least it does not really prevent form using the site, I suppose?
And you often get these problems? Or is it only from time to time?
I will send your screenshot to the ad company, in case they have an idea of what to do (as that problem may affect many of their users/clients)

No, don't worry about it, I can still use the site. I will use this phone untill it's not working anymore, I think the phone is five years old or something.

It only happens once during one session on the browser. Not very often. Just tell them that I am using Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 64-bit browser to browse your pages.
