    Oh, I'm glad it isn't just me. Think I will steer clear for now. Yeuch.

    Phew, and I'm glad it isn't just me :) Also glad we had this place to confirm, I guess it has been hacked.

    Same here. Clearing the cache (and using a sandboxed browser anyway) doesn't help. Problem must be at their end. As you say, phew!
  • I had this too clixsense and other daily sites I use are bookmarked into a folder that load when I click the bookmark bar.
    Very strange, am steering clear for now too

    I'm hoping someone braver than me will come here and tell us when it is safe to have another look !
  • I am so relieved to see all your posts. I came here to see if anyone else was having problems earlier today, and as there were no posts I thought it was just me. I have ran scans and just got back on, clicked Clixsense and it's still the same, so must be coming from them.

    Same here, the site must have been hacked!

    Hope it's up again soon.

    Not sure what is going on with CS, every time I click to sign on it takes me to a rather disgusting !!!!!! site, not what I want to see on my screen. Hope they can get it sorted soon.

    Thank God it's not just me. I always use the same link so it does look like it's been hacked. :eek: I'm not going back on until we get the all clear!! According to Facebook it's affected everyone! But no word from Clixsense yet as far as I can see.

    I'm keeping an eye on the add-on. I guess when we start getting notifications it will be back up
