A concise troubleshooting checklist for , building on 's point: popups that appear when loading index.htm can come from two different places — the visitor's machine (adware/browser hijack) or the site/server itself (injected JavaScript/iframe). The next steps are about quickly telling which it is and then cleaning the right place.

First, isolate the source. Open the page from a different device and network (phone on cellular data or a colleague's PC). Fetch the raw HTML (for example with curl or "View Source") and inspect it for unfamiliar <script> tags, <iframe>s, or obfuscated code (long unreadable strings, lots of eval/document.write/atob). If the malicious code is present in the raw HTML the server is serving, the site is compromised; if not, the problem is local.

If the server is serving the payload: take the site offline or show a maintenance page, preserve a copy of the current files for forensics, then restore from a known-clean backup. Check file modification dates, search for recently changed PHP/JS/HTML files, examine .htaccess for redirects, rotate FTP/SSH/hosting passwords, and review access logs for suspicious uploads or unknown admin accounts. If using a CMS, remove unknown plugins and update everything. Consider a full redeploy from clean source if uncertainty remains.

If the issue is local: do not click popups. Scan with up-to-date tools such as Malwarebytes and AdwCleaner, remove unrecognized browser extensions, reset browser settings, and test again. To help decide or get a second opinion, run an online site scan (Sucuri SiteCheck) and submit suspicious files to VirusTotal. If remediation is unclear or the site hosts sensitive data, involve the hosting provider or a security professional.

Which site? Daniweb?

If it's Daniweb, you might be a victim of a virus or a rootkit, seeing as I highly doubt Daniweb has pornographic popups.

I think your shift key might be broken, get that looked at first.

What operating system are you running? ie: Which distro of Linux?

You may have a virus or rootkit.
