Hello GF members, I'm just making this announcement to let you all know that the malicious redirect that has plagued our outside links has hopefully been fixed.
The issue was this, any index link from search engines (google, yahoo, bing, ect.) and links coming from other sites like twitter or facebook were triggering a code that was somehow being put into our cache files which took you to a malicious site only one time until you restarted your browser. Bookmarked links were working fine during the issue. You can get a greater detail of this here:

I have deleted the code and blocked the supposed IP address that was coming in and infecting our files. Kudos to VirusZero of endless fight for bringing it to my attention and helping with a fix.
If you notice any further problems, please let me know ASAP.
