DVD Reviewer goes direct to Disney

When opening up DVD reviewers main page - the one after the welcome splash - I get redirected to Disney - not a pop up but a complete hijack - anyone else got this?

Yeah, it just happened to me when I went into the Bargain Buckets forum, clicking the back button brought me back to where I should have been. That`s some aggressive form of advertising !! :(

Just happened to me as well.

If this is intentional it is enough to stop me using these forums.
I haven`t winged about any of the other changes or forms of advertising but that is one step I ain`t taking.

No, but it seems to be fixed now!

Was it a re-direct instead of an intended pop up?

No wind-up, only happened the once. Not long after first coming on the site for the day. Maybe it only targets each user once or something?

I don`t think we are even running any popup/creative code atm that could do this.
