Mumsnet redirecting to porn website

Is it just me?

It's happening on my phone, I click on a thread and instead of opening it sends me to some dodgy porn site.

It's not every time, but it's happened twice in 24hrs. I'm not tech savy is it my IPhone?

I am getting a redirect sometimes but it's to the EE content blocked page so I'm not seeing any other websites. Just one today though.

Slightly different, tonight I've twice had "Safari cannot confirm the identity" (roughly) of eu-gmtdmp.gdl.mookie1.com. Most recently a few minutes ago on a chat thread. (iPad2 running Safari on ios4)

The Mumsnet website has a virus - I get the following alert from my AVG antivirus software says:

Hi there ZooTicuS1979!

Tech has assured us that the site is completely secure, especially now we’re on https. There is no virus or anything malicious on the site, however, if you could send us some screenshots if this continues to happen (and let us know what browser you're using) then we'd be happy to take a look.
