Pop-Ups

Postby m4lcs67 » Wed Apr 10, 2013 10:18 pm

Hey Guys,
Joined the forum last week. Have been a life long Gooner and have been pleased to find somewhere that I can converse with fellow fans.
However I am a little unhappy with the slightly dodgy pop-ups that I keep getting while on the site. I understand that you need to make money in order to keep the site going, but is this something beyond your control? I never click into them as this is usually where you can pick up viruses. They are more nuisance value if anything, but is there a way to de-activate them?
Thanks
Malcolm

Firefox

Adblock plus add on

Then donate to the site for not clicking the ads. ;)

Had that on a service user's computer at work once - left before I had the chance to destroy it.

These guys recommend a program called Revo Unistaller
