Lately I seem to be getting pop-ups and redirects when I click on a new topic.

Using Google Chrome with Avast running.

I see nothing different than usual. Firefox with AdBlock Plus.

Looking at the info of AdBlock, 17 things on this page were blocked.

It appears my link to the forum had somehow become corrupted. About a week ago there was an official looking message in the forum that "Genesisowners.com was no longer valid and "genesisowners" was correct and I should click on it.

I did and nothing in the forum appeared different, however, the pop-ups started around this time.

My laptop had GenesisOwners.com as a favorite and was running normally without pop-ups or redirects. I emailed that url to my PC, delted the old favorite and used the emailed one.

Voila, pop-ups/redirects gone.

Was there some sort of name change message?

No, your link/bookmark was not corrupted. And yes, they removed WWW from URL and it became different domain name. Here the message:

Just a quick note to let you know that the website address is no longer www.genesisowners.com but genesisowners.com (without the www). Please update your bookmarks at your earliest convenience.

When thread had link to another thread on this same forum and you clicked on that link your browser was opening that link in the new window/tab but without WWW, and you were logged out. When you are not logged in you see a lot of ads and pop-ups.
