This is to complain about how an advertisement page interrupts whenever one navigates from one page to the next. At first I could deal with it occurring occasionally, but now it is every page, and simply eating too much of my time and patience. No other website I visit pushes advertising onto its readers. Simply put, I must dramatically cut back my viewership here ... perhaps just stick to 'Daily Hottie.'
You've probably got some spyware/adware on your computer if you're seeing a lot of pop-up ads or other intrusive ads.
I never have an "advertisement page" come up when I go from one page to the next - sounds like a problem with your computer.
Ok ... I'm concluding it has to do with my piss-poor internet connection. (I'm on a somewhat remote mountain hillside in what is still considered a developing Asian country.) It is not pop-up ads or a virus. When I navigate to a new forum page, the bottom activity bar reads 'tranferring data from ads.elitetrader.com ...' but the only part of the page that loads is IB's banner ad at the top. If I navigate 'back', then I get the page originally targetted. And it doesn't always happen frequently, but very sporadic. Just an intermittently poor connection I think ...
same here. I've pretty much thoroughly scrubbed the computer for any virus/etc... from head to toe, but often need to hit the back button to re-load pages stuck on loading ads. Firefox 3.012 It could possibly have to do with FF/flash ad-blocking, but bearable. Just chiming in to let you know you are not alone. edit: just read somewhere there is a bug in firefox/older flash player combos. Downloaded flash 10 and the problem is gone.
you should be running malware programs like AdAware, Spybot and spywareblaster + a firewall like ZoneAlarm. Also, try different browsers. Some are IE, Firefox, Opera and Chrome
