Now I can start stalking that Jody character, armed with his last name. You know... more so than usual.

It's not just that one either... there are several vertical ads (looking at one for BellSouth now and there was one earlier for Windows).

At first I thought it was a glitch. Full'o'fail.

I'm sure that all humans look alike to your average marsupial as well, and thus, the universe remains in balance.

The force is strong in this one.

you are using adblock, but i did not notice the NoScript icon. add that to your FF and banners and pop-ups like that will go away.

I've been getting that problem too, I'm also getting redirected by tribalfusion to some annoying page for some job hunting site half the time when I go to post. I know it's not a problem on my end because I spent 4 hours scanning my PC and it only happens on Alla's.

I use FF and I tried installing the adblock. For some really odd reason it then refused to let me post in here, or watch anything from youtube.com. I got rid of it. I dont mind the ads, but I do mind when they pop up in the middle of the page where the forums ought to be.

Also admins, after taking off my adblocker, it is still happening.

Some of us decided to not renew our premium when Alla teamed up with "the man". Nothing to do with cheapitude.

still getting those damn ads, popping up in the middle of the screen and no forums showing. Seriously, this is starting to **** me off. I dont mind the ads on top, although the audio ones are annoying. But when I'm trying to refresh the page or post and get an ad only instead, thats just wrong.

Last night before I was able to Log In, I was hit with a similar large ZWINKY ad (or add for Singdall's stupid ***).

Install NoScript, its usually in the top 10 add-ons on the Mozilla add-on link.

The fun part is that at each website you visit you have to click at the bottom (S symbol with a red cross-through sign on it) and allow that website to run scripts. Just make sure you do not allow the advertisements or you will get the freakish pop-ups and etc.

That should fix the problem.
