hi been trying to use kamtecs website to shop for shells
http://www.kamtec.co.uk/
please try the link and see if it happens to you
but after a few seconds the page redirects to an advert and wont let you click back for 8 seconds
have they been hacked or something or is this some sort of horrible auto advert thing they are involved with
if so its a bad do and a good way to lose customers
if its not get it sorted so i can buy shells cos its really annoying

Possible youve got a virus.

The problem is Kamtecs website. Go anywhere on the website and wait a minute, there is a time delay before it happens. If you keep on moving around the site it doesn't activate. After a couple of redirects it ends up on a Linkbucks page which makes the hacker a little money every time someone lands on it.

I've spoken to Kamtec and they are aware of the problem. It has no malicious code so will not download anything to your computer. They are sorting it with the hosting company as i type

Hi All

This is Mandy from Kamtec, I can confirm that our website was hacked over the weekend, it was in the header rather than the content of the site, not sure why people want to waste their time doing things like this, surely if they are that clever they could put their brains to better use.

KAMTEC WEBSITE has now been restored and the problem is over, so please feel free to use us again.

Thanks to all for your support and computer tips.
Mandy
