Popup Ads and other Ads

Yes I am too Bill , I have Adblock Plus installed but it seems to freeze my input if I enable it. It use to work fine so I’m guessing Martin found a way to counter it’s effectiveness.

The only pop up ads I get are the ones on the left hand side of the page, and they mainly seem to show
items that I have googled. I ignore them as the price of have a free woodworkers site.

It might be your computer. You may have clicked something, or downloaded something and it installed a spam-machine. I am logged in now with Opera and I’ve got one ad on the right as I type this, one way up top. Nothing on any other part of the page and no inline ads. It’s not obnoxious at all.
(EDIT: And when I’m just on a page reading a thread, there is only one ad – on the right. Nothing on top/bottom.)
On the other hand, I tried it in firefox, not signed in, and the ads are top/bottom/right, every other post in a thread, as well as the inline ones where they highlight a word in someone’s post and link to an ad.

I use Firefox browser and don’t get any ads. It uses Adblock plus.

I use Adblock with Google Chrome (on a Windows 7 machine) and have zero pop-ups. Sorry, Martin.

Same here! No ads whatsoever.

JavaScript recently updated so if you’re using an internal pop-up blocker and no extension it sounds like it has not responded to those updates yet. Internal blockers don’t kill everything anyway. I stopped using FF for Chrome a while back and Chrome by itself does an excellent job with this stuff, but adding AdBlock to Chrome kills just about every annoyance problem on the planet.

NO pop ups for the strikingly, devilishly handsome, good looking, Scotsman at all.
