    Redirect "Bug"

    First of all, as you can see, I am not a subscriber. As such, I get all of the annoying popups and adds and whatnot. Now, from time to time one of these adds is a redirect from an FFR page to http://mediaresearch.ws/?tid=4&aid=4...ZjIwN2IyNDA%3D, which is an obvious scam/malware site. Now, while this isn't really a problem as you can just close out of it or cancel the load, the redirect it self is a problem. Just now I was browsing the forums, and decided to retry the song for the tournament I'm in. I closed the forum tab I was in and started playing the song. Low and behold I have was halfway through it when a tab reopened with the stupid malware site. My computer switched to it, and I ended up failing. Now, as I suck majorly at FFR, it doesn't really matter for me. But still, whoever is in charge of ads should at least know that this is one that shouldn't be here. Not only is it an obvious virus, it affects gameplay in a negative fashion.

    tl;dr: Redirected page made me lose. Why is this ad here again?
