Pop Ups

Last night whilst browsing the forum on my mobile I had a few dodgy Pop Ups appear, they looked like they originated from the advertising slots and made the forum unusable, as each time I pressed the back arrow and reloaded the screen the Pop Up would reload.

This morning all seems well, so just thought I would let you know.

Just been hit with the Pop Ups again whilst using this forum on my mobile, this time I could not use the back arrow key to clear them as each time I did the Pop Up just switched to different one, see below.

Samsung-giving.world
Givecard-event.me
iPhone-giving.online

My phone is totally clean as I don't visit dodgy websites, so the Pop Ups must have come from this forum as it only happens when I visit here.

Hi,
Sorry about this. I’ve reported it to the advert provider again.

Thanks
Rob

I think you're right DMW. I'm having the same problems using Google Chrome on my phone. My laptop seems ok though. I've now installed Duck Duck Go on my phone and that's working fine.

This site uses the same ad platform as most of the football sites too.

Anyway, they’ve come back and it should be fixed now.

Thanks
