WARNING: Mormondiscussions may be compromised

All,
Over the past 24 hours, all page loads on mormondiscussion.com attempt to connect to random domains hosted at rr.nu. If you are using firefox, you will see, at the bottom of your screen, a message saying "Connecting to sba15gsed.rr.nu" or some other rr.nu subdomain.
rr.nu. hosts malicious hacker software capable of installing itself on your computer and logging keystrokes. There is no reason mormondiscussions.com pages should be trying to connect to these sites.
Dr. Shades - can you please investigate. I think this is why the chat feature is no longer working.
All, proceed with caution. Ensure you have malware, spyware, and virus detection installed and up-to-date on your machines.
THanks,
H.

I'm on an IPad.
I'm seeing slow loading and incomplete loading of pages.
It's functioning but not properly.

I agree that something is amiss. I tried to log on with my tablet last night and was redirected to a porn site. I haven't had any problem with my PC, but I think that is probably because I am using Chrome and have Adblock.

I'm on Chrome (thanks, bb) and have had no issues that have been reported here.

Can we get a whois on the IP of the website being redirected to?

I was embarrassed to say anything, but when I tried to navigate here from Google earlier, all of the sudden various hardcore pornography websites started to open. Thank Jebus that my wife was not looking over my shoulder at the time, or any of my kids for that matter, because it could have gotten really ugly. I am no prude about porn, but this was some really vile stuff. I kind of wondered whether my link to an article about certain supporter of Romney might have made MDB a target.

Yeah a naked lady just popped up on my PC when I went to MD. I wouldn't mind that much except it's my work PC!

It must be Iranian and Syrian cyberterrorists making good on threats to the USA!
They must be combining with the Mormon priesthood to attack the message board housing so many enemies.
We must form a committee. Make rules and secure this place lest any links be placed, or words be spoken, that could compromise security!
MDB Defense Authorization Act?
