Thumper Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 No pop-ups when I'm around either. Can you enlighten us as to what kind of pop-ups you're seeing, and do you see similar pop-ups on other sites you visit? It is just (remotely) possible that your computer has been infected by spyware, and these adverts you're seeing are self-generated. Run something like Spybot - Search & Destroy or Adaware to check there isn't something nasty lurking in your woodshed. I do see a banner advert at the top of the page, but I wouldn't classify that as a pop-up. I'm also using an older version of Windows, so don't have XP's pop-up blocker.

Ex Forum Admin Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 There are no pop-ups on the forum itself, but there are pop-ups on the main sites (www.francemag.com and www.livingfrance.com).I know they can be a pain for some but they help to generate income to keep the website and forum running. You can run a pop-up blocker if you would prefer not to see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thumper Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 Sorry grumpy, I didn't know you were referring to the parent websites - thought you meant here on the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Posted January 12, 2006 Author Share Posted January 12, 2006 It was, indeed, the main site to which I referred! I feel a lot better now I've had my rant. I think I'll go and find another site to moan about. <wanders off into the distance muttering> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
