Hi @LunaTheCat

We're sorry to hear you're having this issue. Please can you tell us a bit about the ads you're seeing? If you can take a screenshot that would be really helpful. There are a couple of other threads where people have mentioned specific (fake virus) pop-ups but we're not sure if you're seeing a different type of ad.

If you can also let us know which version of the site you're using, and which threads/topics you're in when the ads pop up, we'll be able to look into this.

Thanks in advance.

Hi there @LunaTheCat . Thanks for the screenshot; that's really helpful. If you see it again could you possibly click on the ad and then send us the url for the ad itself? That will help us track it down more quickly.

If anyone else seeing these big ads could do the same, that would be brilliant. Thanks!

Thanks everyone. We've blocked the suspect ads that we can see for now. If anyone sees any more please do let us know here. Thanks!

Thanks for all your reports on this issue. We're doing our best to track these ads down as quickly as possible. What really helps is screenshots and links to the pages where you were when the ad appeared. Even better than that would be a url to the ad itself if you're able to click on it. Thank you! Flowers

Thanks for all of the screenshots and URLs as they're always a big help. We're on the case with these ads and will be back with an update as soon as we can.

Evening, everyone. Could anyone, particularly those seeing Amazon ads, click on those ads and send us the url for the ad itself please? Many thanks.

Hi @longtompot. Thanks for letting us know. Can you tell us, were you able to close that ad using the 'x' button or is that why you were refreshing the page?
