That works. Consistently. Shall I just use it as the link now? (Though that still leaves WHY IS THIS HAPPENING to sort out.
I still get re-directed to malware every time I try using the site's normal link.)

The site has been inactive. I no longer have contact with the other members.
It's a valuable forum to me though because a lot of work went into its design, the magazine, graphics, games, widgets.
I actually still hope to use it again even now, which is why I had gone to check on it and found this problem.
But to answer you, no, there aren't any other (active) members to ask if they have an issue.
And I don't have another computer to try going to it from.
But I'm not having any problems whatsoever with any other site. Just this one!
And now I find I can use that admin log-in without problem....but the regular link takes me to malware...but this only happens to me, not you!
...I have no clue or possibility to offer as to what's going on.

It keeps changing where I get mis-directed to.
Don't follow this link! but here is the last address I arrived at.
I offer it as an opportunity to see an address I am being re-directed to, in case it sheds light.
- Code:
https://secure.calcch.com/performance/bdv_rd.dbm?enparms2=7564%2C1913812%2C2734651%2C7515%2C7518%2C11514%2C7725%2C0%2C0%2C7519%2C0%2C1913032%2C589095%2C10564%2C112676747379%2C80087872%2Cary.nfilu3&ioa=0&ncm=1&bd_ref_v=www.bidvertiser.com&TREF=1&WIN_NAME=&Category=1000&ownid=3forum.biz&u_agnt=&skter=ary%2Bnfilu3&skwdb=ary%2Bnfilu3
Peer Block says that page is this IP address: 216.200.199.79
It says it is called " b.path.com ads"
And though I end up at various different addresses, that IP seems to be the culprit behind it. It seems like adware.
More things finding...
I can paste and go to the correct address successfully
http://furbles-dot-com.forumotion.com/ I will try making a new link to use, and also try clicking it as admin, but these are straws I am grasping at. I am exploring though.
I will update by editing here...
Okay the latest development is I ran a scan, did some updates to my computer, shut down, restarted,
and I shredded the link I had been using to go to Ferbles. I then made a new link from the correct address
and now all of a sudden I can go there with no issue. I don't know that this means I've solved it by happenstance
because during this last day here I have repeatedly been able to go to Ferbles sometimes, then minutes later, no.
So: maybe the problem has been solved, and it was a corrupted link I had been using
(though its properties pane showed it was okay, and an avast scan agreed), but..maybe it was just a corrupted link.
I think what to do next is follow that "wait 24 hours before posting again" rule, in order to give the situation that long,
to see that the problem does not recur.
If it does not, I will post thank you and mark it solved tomorrow...
You guys are the best, by the way. Thank you all for looking at this for me.
It is a great thing that you are here, even as years go by, to help us.

Forgive me. It's been years. I did used to know the rules, and will refresh my memory now.
