Stealth Installers from Pop-up ads

In the last 5 minutes I have had 3 different stealth installers, generated by the pop-ups I believe, try to install add-ons to my PC whilst browsing this forum.

One was Gatorcorp (Quite common on a lot of websites I know), but the other two I have never seen before.

On top of that I am seeing a pop-up ad on every click of a page. I thought the frequency was much lower than that.

I had that too yesterday, but they seem to have gone now? 😕

yeah same here

I never had them....

Hmm....we are meant to be a popup free zone.

Anyway, I'll get on to the advertisers about this.

Pop

Pop-up killers

That is really weird, since I haven't got one popup yet.

Anyway, I've complained to the advertisers and am waiting for their response.....probably Monday.

I really don't have any popups..none.

I signed up now and did not see pop-ups

Been told by advertiser that this should no longer occur.

Let me know if you still see them.

No pop-ups for me.

Been pop free since the beginning of the month.

So,problem solved.
Once again our chief Raz solves it 🙂
