    No but I wish they did, maybe I could get an extension for my browser that would make it ask.

    My browser asks me to confirm though, unless I specify otherwise in the settings.

    I use Chrome and/or Firefox.

    When you download something, Firefox asks you to be sure, and still won't let you open exe files directly in the browser. Unfortunately, there are ways to run shit from your temp files, cache, and cookies. Some sites even get you to allow the download by scripting it to close button.

    Hi, are you guys still getting redirected? If you are, try to do a hard refresh:
    Mac: Command + Shift + R
    Windows: Ctrl + F5

    Or try clearing your cache.

    I'm really sorry about this redirecting issue, and I swear to God I didn't install those redirects intentionally to earn money etc.

    Basically after investigation, I found that there's a line of code that makes my website be redirected. I really don't know/can't remember how those codes got into my website... Maybe I installed it when the ad agency i was partnering with asked me to install it? But after I removed that line of code, I didn't get redirected anymore. I put up a survey too and it seems majority is not facing the issue anymore too.

    Let me know if you still have any issues. Thanks!

    If you're knowledgeable enough, then I think inspecting the code for stuff you add to your website is a good idea.
