Clicksor redirecting Ads/Popups?

    I've been thinking of trying Clicksor on one of my sites but in the last couple of days every site i goto who is running Clicksor freezes my browser (IE) and tries to redirect me to http://00.0.0 or somthing along them lines.

    Anyone else getting this? Really puts me off trying them!

    Thanks

    Sometimes they have problems like this. I used them for awhile but have not used the site in months. I think they have pop ups and search pages. Some of the smaller ad sites have problems slowing sites down every now and then also.

    Clicksor is best avoided. They will destroy your site over time.

    Thanks for the replys.

    Im glad im not the only one that it happens to. Its been happening since Friday now for me and i can't understand why its still happening, does Clicksor not remove things like this when they are reported? I spoke to there live support about it so its not like they are unaware of the issue.

    Im not a publisher yet.

    A couple of sites i visit run Clicksor ads and i get the problems everytime i visit them. Seems i am not the only one as i've spoken to some other Clicksor publishers who say they have been reporting this issue since last week and all get the same 'we are working on the issue' respone.

    How long can it take?

    Thanks

    When I tested my site on IE yesterday, I saw the same problem. But I didn't see anything when I was using Firefox.

    They as a company seem to be unable to control the misuse of their service. The ads they serve sometimes contain malware or redirection. This only seems to affect IE users so it is some type of browser exploit.

    The http://0.0.0 problem has been fixed by our IT Dept. You may implement our ad code again.

    If you encounter any problem, please feel free to PM us with your publisher account ID.

    I would not recommend clicksor because of bad experience years ago, opening popups when all I wanted was to try their ppc service, better forgotten. I also tried adbrite or bidvertisers and I can only blame them for some things such as low payements or other things, but not for such big user experience crashing!

    My site users have been having the same problem. Clicksor told me though, that I was the ONLY one complaining about the ads redirecting users to other sites. But a quick google search shows that I'm not the only one.

    http://www.google.com/#hl=en&source=hp&q=clicksor+ads+redirect&aq=f&aqi=&oq=&fp=7960896364bf1ed8

    So why did they tell me that I was the only one?

    And why can't they fix it permanently like Adsense does?

    Every time they get rid of the bad advertiser, they come back again, and the problem repeats itself.

    Nice, but this has happened five times already. Everytime you fix it, the problem comes back next week. Why can't you fix it permanently? Your company is being ruined by this. Doesn't your CEO care? Why can't he hire or contract competent IT consultants to fix this?

    You guys need to fix this ASAP!
