Virus scam appearing only when on Mumsnet

I thought it might be sorted after the last few days, but only been on here 4 minutes and had it twice already...

I'm getting it too. All day. Get a few replies into a thread then it freezes and goes to the fake warning screen. On the laptop, not on my phone.

This has just happened AGAIN
When viewing THIS page

No, I did NOT click on an ad
Please sort this out

Still terrible today. I've been trying to look at one thread but get the virus warning after a few seconds every time I click on the thread. MN really need to get to grips with this. It must be one of the ads, so surely they can just check the ads and remove the virus one. Surely it's not rocket science.

I just got the robot thing.

Mumsnet is becoming unusable.

I'm getting the same blank pages and virus warnings. Am using Chrome on a laptop. So frustrating!

I have been getting this for a few days now. I thought it was my PC - clearly not!

Like others, it is the MCAfee pop-up, trying to take me to another page and saying my device is infected. I'm using chrome, on a desktop, and it only happens on MN.

Its now so bad I cant even read the posts from today on this thread, as each time a move my mouse the page disappears.

Just hopeless.

Have only be on site less than half an hour, and not one I have a notification for has displayed properly.

What's the point of bothering to log in.

the site is getting worse by the day with blank pages, robot alerts and Mcaffee spam and has been pretty much un-useable today. Will probably improve my real-life productivity though so maybe it'll turn out to be a blessing! Checking out for a while.

I'm getting so many blank pages at the moment. Half way through reading a page and it goes blank and I have to refresh the page. It's becoming a battle of how far can I get down the page before it does it again.

Part of me is hoping this is a forward step towards resolving the spam popup as it doesn't end up on the spammy webpage at least now.

It is highly annoying though and is making me want to step away for a while.

Still happening although it has moved on from the "McAffee" span into something AVG is catching. Seriously though MN, sort it out

Getting the same message shown in first page of this thread, and also white screen, most recently on this page. Working on a Windows laptop using Chrome.

Happening to me too. Chrome, desktop.

Yes, mid/late afternoon seems worse (not on usually in evening so no idea about then)

I'm getting the scam McAfee warning and pages suddenly going blank, happening over last approx 4 days with increasing frequency, only on MN.

Chrome, desktop.

Constant blank page on laptop using Edge now. I can only get on using Safari on my iPad/iPhone.

On Opera - also been getting the McAfee warning for several days and now getting blank page as well.

And again. Sigh. After 11 pages of comments, are you not able to do something about this?

and it's worse today. Obviously a traffic overload issue as it's worse now than early monring.

Also got the mcaffee fake popup thing.

this too.

And here Either the DDOs page or blank pages Blank pages now coming up every few minutes! Incredibly frustrating Mumset needs to sort it or they will lose an awful lot of users 😡

same here. About 1 minute after looking at threads. Freezes, screen goes blank and my pc tells me there is a virus. It's asking me to start a scan.

I know this isn't 'real' as we have a scan going on regularly.

There's something corrupt on the MN site.

same here.

12 times in the hour that I've been on here. Will have to leave this site for tonight and try again tomorrow,
