I went to get a drink and I came back and it sent me to some page by itself and kept trying to get me to download stuff my Firefox blocked it... It's done this with only Roblox sites.

Anyone else have this issue?

The only logical answer I can think of is that a site/link was compromised by a hacker.

It happens all the time with those fake bluescreen websites that ask you to call a certain number to get your computer fixed, so they can steal your number, whitepage you and blackmail you for money.

I would strongly advise that you just stay clear of any suspicious links for a while. But I definitely think Roblox's staff should look into this, if what you said about it being a roblox link, is true. Good luck and I hope you didn't get a worm or something.

It sounds like you have a form of adware, because ROBLOX would never lead one of their users to one of these sites.

There is quite a few tutorials on youtube how to remove adware viruses;

It might be adware.
Get Malware-bytes and scan your system

I have anti-viruses, I left the page idle and a ad was flashing like crazy and sent me to the page. I have also seen this ad pop up on my Mac, So it's not just my computer. I wished I had a adblock but roblox won't let me use the site with adblock, F E E L S

No antivirus can detect all adware, and roblox would never give you a popup.

"I have also seen this ad pop up on my Mac, So it's not just my computer."

Ad companies are getting better and better everyday...
... or it could be a special malware for Mac called "Macster".
