You might have some spam stuff attacking your system. We shouldn't have any pop ups at all, but I'll check into it and see if the fellas handling that side of things changed something I don't know about. I honestly don't think we have any pop up ads, though.

It could be my computer. But why would it only happen when I'm here and not at other sites?

Run a spyware/malware/spamware agent on your computer - likely you have that kind of issue as Smitty stated. There are some free ones out there - AdAware and Spysweeper are a couple I've used with success (Google “spyware” and a bunch of different software links will pop-up).
Good luck - and I meant that  - stuff isn't easy to remove.

well, sometimes if you have some spy virus, it pops up ads that fit your browsing trends. Not sure, I'm not a spy virus guru, but it sounds like the case. I am almost positive we don't have pop ups.

No pop-ups in this site definitely. I even praised Smitty for that.

No pop ups at this site Omaha. X has you covered…try downloading AdAware and maybe SpyBot…they should get you cleaned up.

Never had any here either. Sounds like we’ve narrowed it down to one user……lol. Could be that these guys are right. You may want to check out that computer of yours Omaha.

thanks for the help
Hope our sarcasm wasn’t too much.
Are you still getting pop-ups only when you are in this site omaha? Or have you figured out what was going on?

the pop ups have just stopped. It's weird. the night I posted I had at least 4 within the hour or so I was on here. haven't had any since. I think I'm seeing things or going crazier.
