MotionRC.com website not working

[keilau]

In the past few days, when I saw one of their advertisement showing an item I may be interested in and click the ad, the website will be blocked by a spam mail subscription request. It does not allow me to access the MotionRC website unless I accept the spam subscription.

Why does MotionRC.com do that?

It's not Motion, it's your computer.

It's not Motion, it's your computer.

Any suggestions on what I should do? It is a MotionRC.com spam mail subscription.

Type www.motionrc.com and don't click on ads. Some software on your computer is blocking ads.

You'd probably want to run a scan with windows defender, specifically for malware, as well as clear out browser cache and remove any suspicious extensions or apps you don't recognize that have installed lately (google first what they are before you start indiscriminately deleting them). A good look at the running windows processes might also give clues. (Ctrl+Alt+Delete > Task Manager > Processes Tab). You'll see a lot of things running and you can't assume them to be all bad, but it's usually one area to look for some rogue apps doing sneaky stuff behind your back. Some just have a lot of linked processes running simultaneously so it looks like a crazy list but it's not. If this is all seems like a bit much, flag down your nearest IT person
