Horribly annoying redirection problem >_< - Update #3 - Help appreciated, are you still hit by the problem ?
New UPDATE #4 : almost all third-party code lines have been removed, can you tell me, again ? Thank you so much !
Once again, feedback is appreciated
Hello everyone,
There is something on Hentairules redirecting some of the visitors (not all of them, not me, I can’t make the test myself, damnit, and even the victims of this script aren’t affected all the time) to a website called Yellowpages.com. I don’t speak about a popup advert, but about the website itself disappearing, replaced by some other shit, forcing you to hit your “back” button.
It drives me mad, I don’t manage to find where it comes from, so I guess it must be one of the ads loading a faulty code at times.
I’m progressively making the tests to find it, removing a piece of code, and seeing if I still read redirectin reports, and then moving on to the next piece of code.
This is long and tiresome, but the’re no choice.
So, please, can you help ?
This is SUPER simple : IF you were already previously redirected outside of Hentairules, then please, when you visit Hentairules, stop in this post to report, in a comment, if you’re still being redirected at the present time, – or not.
If you see I mention a new update, that means I moved to testing another piece of code, it will be a chance to report to me, again, in a comment, if you have the problem

New UPDATE #4 : almost all third-party code lines have been removed, can you tell me, again ? Thank you so much !
I'm just glad it's not just me. Happy hunting:)
yep it Redirected me again
OK, I'll try another piece of code. I do them one by one.
Done, I upated the code.
Thanks if you can tell me ^^
still redirecting me
There, I updated the codes, maybe this time the code I removed will be that of the culprit !
Thanks if you can test again.
And for memory, I'm making it in big
================ UPDATE 1 ====================
Code 2 did not remove. I live in hawaii and it knows that… redirects me to honolulu type things.
Er, come again, what are you redirected to ? o_O
I have been being redirected…when I logged on today I was not redirected. Hope that helps.. Cause that was really really annoying…
I was gettign redirected every day but it seems to have stopped thanks for the fix
That's the problem, it is highly possible that the redirection scripts takes care not to redirect you more than x times per day.
Thanks for the report nonetheless, even the fact that you were not redirected anymore, despite the fact the bad code is still present, is something interesting to know
============== UPDATE 2 ========
i too was redirected, and was when i got here today
Still redirected.
Got redirected about 15 seconds before this post.
Dang, so something else is the cause of the problem. Thanks for the report, again, I'll be trying more potential culprits
================ UPDATE 2 =================
Thanks a lot for the reports, guys, I'm grateful, keep going !
I'll eventually find this fucking code responsible for the redirection problem >_<
================ UPDATE 2 =================
With me, it only redirects me when I first get to the site. Like, I'm on the front page previewing the posts and after everything is done loading, it then redirects me. Little bastard waits for me to find something I want to download and I've got the cursor over the link to go to the full post before it moves though…
Hasn't happened today though.
Nevermind, it redirected me today as well.
rrgh! same here! it waits till i find something then redirects. DX
P.S.: Mr. admin of awesome , have you tried opening site as a normal site (rather than an editor's version) or from another browser or IP then tracking the redirect?
Excuse me, by "same here", do you mean you're still redirected ?
About about changing IPs, I tried with american proxies and got nothing, for the little it may mean.
I'm still getting redirected. >_> It happens like every other time I'm here just checking the updates. Quite frankly, I'm as pissed as you are.
Just got me
I'm not getting redireced but the site is slow for me. I'm from the philippines
if u download a firefox extension called adblock plus and then use the element blocker to block just one script at a time, then you can easily narrow it down without any code changes.
That is, if I were hit by the problem. I am not.
That is, if the script isn't configured to redirect a visitor only x times.
Etcetera.
Grrrr, stupid problem.
I don't get redirected, but I do find rather annoying that everyday, the first click I give on any place of any page on this websites opens a popup that Chrome doesn't seem able to block.
It's from the AdultAdWorld provider you use (the code that opens it is on the bottom of the page, as "adultadworldpop_z.js"). I never complained about it before because… hey, I do enjoy your shares extensively and for free, so it would be selfish of me to complain about how you run your website… but since we are on the subject, I just thought to let you know.
I hate adverts too, but without them my blog would be closed, so, Divino, I'm sorry, I can't help you. Well, unless you use adblock, but I guess you already knew about it, come on
Yeah, I know, and I don't really mind the ads, it's just the popup window that it's a little annoying. But don't worry about it. Considering that I download pretty much every single comic you post (from DepositFiles, since you ask so nicely ), I don't feel I have much right to complain about having to close one window.
Still happening. It appears to occur at least once per day or session. Page loaded then immediately sent to some kind of yellow-pages site.
Good luck hunting. I know codes can get confusing, especially when pulling from 3rd party sources.
redirected me as i was reading the post lol
I get it sometimes, I found that if I let the site partially load then hit stop it keeps it from happening. don't know if that helps but it happens very rarely
I get redirected when the page is about 3/4 done loading.
Sorry dude, I just got redirected. It happens most often to me on the mainpage, but I think I remember it happening occasionally elsewhere, so your thoughts about it being an ad redirect could be right. Good luck fixing the code, and don't worry, I promise to stick around. Thanks for all the great shares!
The redirect happens to me but didn't today. It only happens maybe once every 2 or 3 visits.
Ive been redirected twice.
Redirect happened to me again, just a few minutes ago. If it makes any difference I'm from SE USA, I use firefox, and though it redirected me earlier today I had closed firefox since then so I believe that counts as a new "session". It's weird because when it does it I can't click the back button because it isn't an option, I have to type the URL in the address bar again and go to the front page. Also I usually get an advert on whatever first link a click, and now that I think about it, I can't remember it happening since. Might be a good place to look next if you haven't already.
I just got redirected.
It happened to me a few times already in the past weeks. But it only happened randomly.
sometimes I can stay on ur site but sometimes it got redirected to Yellowpages.com with "insurance" as a search word. LOL XD
maybe you need to renew your insurance policy??
i have the same problem i get redirected to yellow pages not allways but 2 out of five times (or so)
hope yow can fix it
Personally I don't think the redirection is occurring because there's something wrong with your website Oliver. This kind of thing has been happening everywhere in the internet recently. For example, I try to go to a website I googled only to be redirected somewhere else.
That's not a helpful comment, lol, if I have no way of knowing if it's me or not ^^
I just redirected couple minutes ago. Like you said, it does not happen all the time. However, it is annoying when it happens. I am like what the <censorship> when I am redirected to another website.
FYI, I use IE7.
I used to get redirected all the time, but it's not happening now.
just got redirected.
for me it seems to only redirect me when i use my bookmarks to come to the page. if i google the site and go to it i don't get redirected
============== UPDATE 3 =====================
Thanks for the reports everyone, I removed a whole bunch of code this time, hopefully we'll see if it makes a difference.
I'm really grateful, keep on the good job
If it helps, it started to happen around the time you came back from vacation because i've been getting the yellowpage redirection since then. though for some reason, i'm not being redirected today…

Every time I have been to the site for the past, I dunno week or 2 I have had the redirection issue, which if I remember about it simply means every time I load the main page I hit stop when the page is almost done loading and then I have no problem. However just now when I loaded the page I didn't hit stop and no redirection, yay! However I did just install an ad blocker this afternoon so that might have been what fixed the problem for me.
Happened to me
I noticed it only happens to me on my computer with windows not my MAC
sometimes happens to me, sometimes happens on reload or while I'm just scrolling down the page (I thought I kept accidentally clicking an add while scrolling with my tablet…)
Today it still happened, it redirected before I could even see this website, happens on my laptop+desktop pc, both win7 firefox
just happen to me right now
Still being redirected. From Canada Montreal. Maybe this info helps? Take care Oliver.
Thanks for the report
Say, did you read the couchsurfing announcement I made, about a friend of mine ?

Just got it
i've had this problem myself. I don't know why it does it, but it does it randomly. I figured it was some ad or virus you had on the site.
Everything I log in, I'm magically sent to Yellowpages.com.
Everytime!
Erm, what do you mean, every time you log in ?
How could you log in into hentairules, you're not the admin ? o_O

Still getting redirected.
Still getting redirected
Redirecting :/
Didn't get redirected this time. Will come back and post if it happens though
Still redirecting..
No problems here.
Perhaps one of the adverts is being a fail?
You're like me, you're lucky, you're not being redirected ^^

I don't think it's your site either, Oliver…though I just got redirected less than 30 sec ago…
What do you mean, you don't think it's my site ? Please, clarify this
