Yes, and also ones from Circuit city I think? They are pop-overs from what I can tell... sneaking through? IDK usually when DocJohn changes or adds things like this he gives us warning... so maybe we'll see?

Can you give me a specific URL or thread that you came across one on?

I have to see who's responsible in order to get them turned off. All of our advertisers already know we don't do pop-ups or pop-unders, but sometimes they run one anyway and we have to go and harass them about it.

Thanks and my apologies.

DocJohn

I've gotten the survey one and the ones from the rollover ad there is on the bottom of the page. The rollover ads are annoying because I alway accidently rollover them. Next they'll have rollover blockers.

Sorry, I wasn't clear....

I need the URL of the forum post or forum that you're getting a pop-up ad, not the ad itself...

I'll keep reloading this thread to see if I can get one if others have gotten one off of this thread, thanks!

I'm not getting any pop-ups. I'm using Firefox and it's doing a very good job of blocking pop-ups.

I get a notice that a pop-up tried to occur when I get a private message, but I haven't noticed it other times. I use Firefox, plus I have a great extension for it called NoScript.

Oh, and a tip: Anytime you post a long URL, to keep it from stretching the post area across the browser window, don't post the link bare or simply wrapped in URL BB code. Do it like this:

<font class="small">Code:</font><hr /><pre>

Some Text

Example:

This is the link

</pre><hr />

and that example will show up like this:

This is the link
