Annoying ass ads

Spiri†ofdarkness · 07-31-2008, 02:47 PM

I actually have the same problem, just like the picture posted above by isuckatthisgame121. At first I thought it was IE so I changed to FF and same problem kept happening, so I rarely use LF now. No I do not have spyware or adware.

I would like to point out that this ads ONLY happen in LF, whenever I go to any other web page I get no pop ups.

Well obviously they are targetting your specific IP then, because I and most other forumers haven't had any problems with this at all.

It's definitely on your end, otherwise we'd all be getting them. Check your security settings.

I'm using a mac, and the Safari browser, and this has happen to be dozens of times.

I don't think it's a problem on our end Bottle.

Oh no, my security settings are fine. I have had this settings for ever and I had never had a pop up. Besides isn't it strange that I ONLY get this pop ups when am here, at LF?

I get the full page ads. Only twice, though. The ads on the side of the page for MMORPGs get really old, though. Honestly, my goddess can wait. Anyone else get that ad?

And my security is just about as tight as it gets. Its your end.

Firefox and adblock do the trick for me. Simply getting firefox won't always solve the problem.

All I use is firefox and it works. I have not got any popup for years after I got firefox. My computer is 8 years old and still runs like I just got it.

FireFox will sort you out. I don't see ANY ads. Let alone ones with ass on them

I'll scrolll down and pop-ups come up won't let me close out of them or anything. Sometimes it puts me on another page but all I do is hit refresh. It's not THAT big of a problem.

Obviously, or you'd fix it.
