Thank you for the Chrome "flags" fix. That is working for me. I have been getting the hijack only on the mobile Chrome Android browser. Until yesterday it was intermittent; today it was happening 100% of the time until I saw your fix (which is not opening up other pages for me as reported in #3 ).

Every time, the top ad that appeared while I was browsing was one for wahealthplanfinder dot org -- then the page would be hijacked. After applying your fix I browsed a short page (with no comments) to minimize the number of ads (it was the "MU connections not allowed..." thread in the Delta forum). Four ads appeared; three were for wahealthplanfinder dot org and the other was for the World of Hyatt card. With your fix on, the "Redirect blocked" message appears every few seconds while the page is open.

Edit: I finally got one page to not show that ad, and the "Redirect blocked" didn't appear. But on other pages, every time that eight ball starts spinning (the beginning of the wahealthplanfinder ad), a few seconds later I get the "Redirect blocked" message. Get rid of that ad!

Seth
