Whenever I'm browsing on wowhead, the site keeps getting changed automatically to an advertisement page from western union, namely link removed
As it only occurs on wowhead.com and all my scans come up clean, I presume it must be a problem at your side.
ps. I use google chrome(##RESPBREAK##)16##DELIM##asakawa##DELIM##

I received the following popup also when viewing the site. Chrome users also

I block all Flash based Advertisements. Only reason is for other sites that have the annoying video/audio flash advertisements.

Thanks, I've added that to the report.

Can I ask both of you for your (rough) locations so we can pin down which localised ad campaigns to fix?

Same problem here, every 2-3 clicks, I get redirected to the Western Union add page.

Okay thanks. That's the same one that svl007 reported above. I've forwarded these reports on to the person at Zam who handles advertising (who is a fantastically hard-working person - me and Hat have a running joke about how awesomely fast their response times are) so hopefully they'll be taken off soon.

Professional, hardworking, and a response time that some jet fighter pilots wish they had.
Cheers,
Hat

Thanks for the report.
I'm locking this because, while we definitely appreciate reports on these ads in any form, it really makes it easier for us to take the bad ads off the site if people follow the steps in
this thread
which is stickied on the Wowhead Feedback forum.
