Has this forum been hacked?

Since logging on to this forum today I have been getting bombarded with ads and spam almost every time I click a link or picture!

Can admins scan everything because it all looks very dodgy to me.

** Since posting this comment I viewed it seconds later and the actual word "hacked" turned into a hyperlink trying to sell me some crap to make my computer faster!!! Then checked again and its disappeared again!

Please sort this out ASAP. I'm away until the spam disappears-I have a hard enough time keeping crap like that from attacking my computer anyway.

**This is a screen dump of what the blue hyperlinks look like and you can see not only does it have a "Speed up you internet" link, it has also opened a 2nd tab inthe back ground advertising "Work from home"rubbish! :
