    Sorry, i read further into this and people are getting redirected entirely?! hmmm, interesting I believe no PPV companies would allow this, they only allow popups mostly.
    Based on roopi's original attached screenshot, it looks like a Javascript window pops up, at which point the main window redirects to the fake AV scan page, and it stops there if you click cancel. Some people are able to hit the back button to get back onto the last page (beyond), but reporting those ads are useless, as it's refreshed already. If the offending ad is still there, it'll pop up and redirect the main window so you really won't be seeing what ad it is without a network sniffer. Theoretically, Google Ads can't trigger a Javascript popup like that, nor can the Canwest ads, so something must be modifying our webpage code inbetween to insert this ad/popup.

    I tried to see if there's a pattern (maybe the shaw proxy's got infected), but people reporting the popups are coming from Telus, Shaw, every ISP out there, so that can't be it.

    I checked our source code to ensure it wasn't infected by comparing it to the code in our sourcesafe repository back 3 months, and nothing... comparison comes up perfect on every one of our web servers. Comparing it back further only shows code changes we've made ourselves.

    Some people don't have this coming up at all (such as myself), but my systems are very clean. No adware or anything.

    If it's adware that's triggering it, it doesn't explain why it's happening on Mac's too... unless there's a specific adware that does target both Macs and PC's. I'm not too familiar in this area. If someone knows more about this, please enlighten me.

    I'm at a lost as to why it's happening. Spent the last 2 days on this, clicking link after link, and just can't get it to show up on my systems at all.

    If you guys have anymore data for me when it happens, please post it up, hopefully I'll be able to track this down for you guys.

    It hasn't happened to me for days now when before it was happening a couple times per day.

    I'm pretty positive it isn't adware.

    I had it open again, not sure if it opened a new tab, opened on Beyond, or if it happened on a ninjavideo.net tab.

    I don't get any of these pop ups but I do get the odd IE crash on beyond every day... where you have to hit restart IE to fix it

    download and run hijackthis

    you're going to see a bunch of wierd named running processes. they are the alarm that you have malware. it's not from beyond.

    the most common redirect to that website is from XP AntiVirus (which there are now a few more advanced versions of). it's usually easier to re-install then to remove xp antivirus, it's annoying.

    good luck

    The latest fixer program I've had luck with is the malwarebytes Anti-malware. Found several items and removed the fake windows antivirus perfectly.

    Also get windows defender from the microsoft site, run it with your normal anti-virus.

    That's not sweat. It's your fat, crying.
