Redirected to advertisement when enter my site's address. Standard?

Is this a Heliohost thing or should I look somewhere else for why this is happening? This has only ever happened today since moving my site over to hosting here. Happens every time I enter the address with cache cleared.

No, that shouldn't happen.

Your computer likely has malware. I see a default page for a WordPress blog when I visit your site. Clearing my cache doesn't seem to make any difference.

What's the domain? So I can try it for them aswell. It is most likely malware though. I was infected with somthing similar some time ago.

oh, but I just erased the wordpress install

[Bailey]

It works for me

[webdevsemo]

I loaded the whole thing from a Wordpress database backup - the native Wordpress database migrate tool. The point of doing this rather than through another (more complete) migration tool was to get rid of baggage, but I guess in vain.

[webdevsemo]

I mean I erased it a put a brand new one there.

I'll try loading the backup again and report back if there's the same problem. I guess we can be pretty sure about that anyway because of course I believe it isn't you guys if you say so and there isn't that problem with the new install.

The malware I'm referring to would be on your PC, not the website. If the website was infected, all of us would be seeing it. Try another device and even another internet connection (e.g. cell phone on data plan) and see if it helps.

 

The dummy WP install you put in there is working fine for me and Bailey.
