Ads take over?

Kyuu · Very bored Joined: 24 Aug 2005 Posts: 176

So this just started happening recently, but the ads that usually sit quietly atop each page have turned annoying. They will suddenly take over the whole page without warning (these are not the scroll over ads, these ones actually change the url of my browser).

I'm also questioning the nature of these ads; I mean "Lonely Cheating Houswives"??? I don't wanna see that crap when I'm trying to browse!

If anything can be done/suggested, I'd appreciate it

Take a screenshot of any inappropriate ads and I'll contact the ad agencies and get the removed.

Try to get the URL the ad links to too, that helps track it.

Got one. This one is popping up like every other page. the pop up has no "cancel" button until it redirects you and it's REALLY FREAKING annoying.

Then it automatically directs you to:

Got the skanky housewives one too. I can't even browse the site because of this one poping up every two goddamned seconds.

It would be easier to track the the screenshot had shown the banner, but I'll see what I can do.

They don't look like anything that should be coming from any of the agencies I am with. And the only questionable agency is capped at 1/day so it shouldn't be them.

This just happened to me, I literally had to stop the page to get signed in. I got the date the house wives thing, then did not let the others load completely.

What banner are you looking for mabee I can get it

*EDIT* got a couple url's with the back button

I've contacted the agency and taken them out of rotation.

There was a ad about "hottest site for gorgeous girls" and it showed them french kissing!

You are not on the same page here, this thread was a report of the ads automadicly redirection users to there sites and not letting users get on to the main page. That issue has been delt with.

This thread could prolly be locked now.
