For the last few days, something has been changing/diverting this website to another website. Ie it is not a pop up or another page. It is shutting down this site and changing to another. I wasn't actually browsing the site, but had a tab left open. I haven't had time to see what page it is as it is accompanied with a loud tone/noise, so the whole browser/page is closed asap etc.

I will try to find out where it is being diverted/hijacked to, but i need to turn down my speakers etc.
 
This sounds like a browser hijacker. Run a virus scan to clean it. If you can see the redirect URL, google it. You are likely to get a result on exactly how to remove it via a site like bleepingcomputer.
 
Sounds like you are being redirected maybe a BHO ( Browser Helper Object). Have you deleted your temp files? tried your browser in safe mode?
 
Like TCIB says, its malware / virus on your PC, nowt to do with the BM site. Do a virus scan and try to stick to more reputable porn sites in the future...;)

Maybe, but it is only doing on the Bluemoon site. I have 9 tabs at start up and only BM is doing this.
 
Ok, just to make sure, i've downloaded different anti-virus software and did a full scan.
I also ran the latest ADWcleaner to check for browser malware.
In both cases zero threats found...

Not true I'm afraid:-


Bollocks, sorry @Ric but just had a redirect to nextoptim.com which Adguard blocked as a potential phishing site. The Adblocker part of Adguard was disabled for Bluemoon but it still watches for dodgy goings on. Still on Win 10/Chrome 64 bit.

Malwarebytes and hitman are reputable anti virus tools you can be sure are safe to install and indeed utilize.

I've used MS Defender, Malwarebytes, Adwcleaner and Hitman after running a full CCleaner session before and after issues on here. Besides the expected (and accepted) tracking cookies my system is totally clean. That (attempted) redirect came from Bluemoon bud.
