Pop up adds on forum - Read here

[AB]

Hi folks,

We have had a couple of members mention they are seeing pop ups on the forum.

We do not have pop up adds on here.

There may be some banner adds which have a pop up if you leave your mouse cursor over the banner add for a certain period of time but you would know this and the members who have asked are sponsors so you shouldn't be seeing any adds anyway.

There are some malware out there that show pop up adds on only certain websites which makes you think it is only happening on certain sites.

If you are experiencing this please download the free Malwarebytes, run that and get back to me.

Stropp, Westy and anyone else that is experiencing this.

A sure sign is links in words for example :There may be some banner adds which have a pop up if you leave your mouse cursor over the banner add for a certain period of time but you would know this and the members who have asked are sponsors so you shouldn't be seeing any adds anyway.

See how show is a different color, if you move your mouse over it a popup will appear, something like that is malware for sure

I am not sure about pop ups but it is just when you scroll the add just keeps flashing. Pretty annoying.

On an iPad. When you move screen up when reading the banner at the bottom moves up and flashes on and off. Hope that helps. Won't stop me from getting the forum though.
