You might want to stay away from this site for a couple of days as it appears to have been hacked and you will be redirected to a porn site.

Are you sure you typed in the url (web address) correctly? I'm not a subscriber there, but the home page and forum both seem to be working properly at the moment. I "protected" myself of course before having a look.

Were you attempting to login there when the redirect occurred?

I was browsing some of my favorite bookmarked sites on my iPad when I tried to go there (LL) only to encounter a blank screen and when I tried to return to the previous screen (one of photo rumors sites) I landed on a porn site.

So something went wrong. I figured it was a problem with the site I was trying to go to. I am a subscriber so it's a bit of a worry. It wouldn't have happened on my computer as I have firewalls, etc.

I closed Safari and erased my cookies and website data afterwords. If it was some sort of attack site does anyone know if it could have installed something?

Hard to say with any certainty at this end, but regardless of the device you use to connect to the 'net, it should be protected. Various software manufacturers offer packages today which include provisions for most devices, above and beyond your desktop/laptop.

Though triggered in a different way, here's some older info that might offer you a bit more insight:

I went back to my iPad to check what website I had been on before and it was mirrorlessrumors. It turns out it is the site which is hacked. It tried to redirect me a few seconds after I opened it. jancohen thanks for checking out the LL site. I thought I knew what had happened. My apologies to LL.

I'm not experiencing a redirect at this end on a Win 7 PC, but there may be one or more issues at mirrorlessrumors that could potentially cause the problem. They're using WordPress (could be current, but the metadata in the code isn't specifying the version), with an older of version (v3.2.0) of the Total theme. According to its developer's release notes, security patches have been added to the theme's code since that version. The current version is v3.3.2, dated January 26, 2016.

You might want to pass that info on to them.
