When JavaScript is enabled, I get multiple warnings in a row -- like it is repeatedly trying to intrude. After a while they stop, but restart with every new page.

When JavaScript is disabled, I get one warning on each new page. But only one.

I haven't come across this problem myself (maybe my Adblock Plus is blocking it?). But that IP address is located in Russia:

An admin should contact M@X about this. I don't see ads anymore on the forum since I have Adblock Plus installed, so maybe it's an ad with some nefarious JavaScript code??

 a few months ago, my antivirus deem PA album pages unsafe and I couldn't do anything on my laptop.

Maybe you got a similar issue.

I started seeing this a few days ago and reported it here. I was beginning to think that no one else was experiencing this.
 

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

When I went to PA today (8/10/22 8:40am EDT), I started getting intrusion detections from Norton every time a new page loads. The intruder was flagged as: https://advertising-cdn.com, and the source IP was "An intrusion attempt by 5.42.199.45 was blocked".

Did something recently change that is now causing this?
