Computer Help

Hey, guys!
So, I have a bit of an issue. It's an embarrassing one, but I'd like some help.
Earlier today, my good friend, rUbBeR-vIxEn-CaT-9043, sent me some links to some submissions on FA. They were run-of-the-mill FurAffinity links. However, when I clicked on them, I got redirected to different pages. Some of the pages were just advertisements, some of them were for BBW porn sites. Every single one of the links redirected me to another site. I tried punching in other links - like a link to one of my submissions, for example - and those worked just fine.
In the four years that I have been using a Mac, I have never experienced this. I experienced it on a Windows, sure, but never on a Macintosh. The thing that struck me as really odd, too, was that all of my browsers did the exact same thing - all of them redirected me to somewhere else with that one set of links. Even Safari did that, and I don't even use Safari.
This makes me wonder if FurAffinity has a glitch in its system. Are all y'all experiencing this as well, or is it just me?
Regardless, I'm running an anti-virus program now, to see if I'm infected. Hopefully, I'm not, but we'll see. I'll check back in a few hours.

That`s really strange. I am sorry the links did not work. I am not a computer expert, or I would help you.

OP
It really is. Thank you, though - you're sweet. When I come back online, I'll see if I can view them.
