dsl135 Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 Keep getting pop-ups whenever I visit this site now to "update my software". I've run my spyware and worked through stuff to try to find solutions and as far as I can tell, its not my computer with the issue. Is anyone else having this problem, and can we bring it to the attention of whoever can fix it? Sorry if this needs to be moved... wanted it to be seen ASAP.

Girouxsalem Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 Adblock and Google Chrome work wonders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarchelli Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 I second those two. On my phone/tablet I use dolphin browser and get no pop ups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomtucker Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 Google chrome is the goat, never looked back it is good, but that new icon in the top right corner, right next to the minimize icon is very annoying.........there should only be the regular 3 icons there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBZ Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 I think it's an issue with the forum software itself, as another site that uses this same platform now has these popups. So until they get that patched up I don't expect these to go away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jolmari Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 I'm using Safari and have no problems. But I noticed a problem when I wasn't a member and used Google to find info from here. The link from Google redirects to some random site when using it for the first time. Then I'd go back to Google, delete the page from history and then the link would work correctly. I think someone made a topic about this problem, but it wasn't solved there. Don't know if it still exists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christhn Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 It seems like bookmarking the page makes it go away too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akteon Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 (edited) I second it that the only time i've gotten the tiny-url pop ups is if i come from a google search results ... So the suggestion of bookmarking works (personally I come here so often typing "fo" in the url bar goes right to forums.icejerseys.com for me) Edited February 3, 2015 by akteon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nthill93 Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 i don't get it from this site but i get it from hfboards. i use safari on my macbook. wish it would go away maybe i should start using google chrome? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
