Pop up ads that cannot be controlled. I have all my browser windows closed and I'm sitting there playing poker when*WHAM* here comes an ad and it automatically opens up Internet Explorer! WTH?? It covers the whole page and I hear the poker game beep telling me it's my turn to bet or check or whatever and I can't get to it because I'm closing a window when another one pops up to take it's place, covering the darned screen angry
Don't you just love them ads that you cannot control?? blinkthumbdown

I don't know how it happened but I never get pop ups any more. I think it has a lot to do with sites that we visit.


myLot reputation of 85/100. fwidman (5328)   ranked 15 out of 5,615 in computer  3 months ago

I don't get very many pop ups anymore either, only on some select sites that I allow them on because I need some things on there to pop up (not ads). But this is a program I've downloaded onto the computer and it was just frustrating as I had the winning hand and, if you take too long to respond, the game automatically folds your hand sad

oh fwidman love your new shoes there.I do so hate those
pop up ads that cannot be touched. that hasnt happened to
me for awhile but it does happen and you cannot work on anything
while its out there. ugh.


myLot reputation of 85/100. fwidman (5328)   ranked 15 out of 5,615 in computer  3 months ago

Thanks, Hatley, I kinda like them shiny looking shoes too happy I don't usually have a problem with pop ups anymore. I don't care much for those that automatically open up a brand new browser though. I never use IE for anything that I don't have to lol I much prefer Firefox happy

Okay Fwid, I'd check for viruses, as it seems you have one. Your IE shouldn't be having pop-ups when you aren't even using it.

If you end up with a pop-up tab that covers a lot of the screen or all of it, you can use Alt+Tab to switch back to your other screen.

If you have to, you can use alt+F4 to close the pop-up window (most times).

As a joke I'll add... "Internet explorer lol!" - Alright I can understand some people still using it, but firefox as an IEtab add-on which loads pages as if it was in Internet Explorer. Still, it seems like you may have a virus or a program causing these odd pop-ups.


myLot reputation of 85/100. fwidman (5328)   ranked 15 out of 5,615 in computer  3 months ago

I agree that at first thought, a bug in the system is the way to go. But, I checked and there's no bugs. It must be something built into the game that I downloaded, not malicious, but annoying. Maybe it's there way of agitating players to the point where they become paid members so they have zero ads lol


myLot reputation of 70/100. theprogamer (7518)   ranked 578 out of 5,615 in computer  3 months ago

Oh then yes, it could be the program itself and yes they do go for ads (or worse pop-up ads, locks, time limits) as "encouragement" for people to shell out money for the Pro/Full version.


myLot reputation of 85/100. fwidman (5328)   ranked 15 out of 5,615 in computer  3 months ago

If I had the money, I'd gladly pay their monthly fee just to get rid of those ads lol

Hi fwidman,


The only timeI get pop=up=ads is when I go into to the graphic sites and some of them have the pop-ups which is so annoying so I know how you feel, isen't there some way we can block them?


Tamara


myLot reputation of 85/100. fwidman (5328)   ranked 15 out of 5,615 in computer  3 months ago

You can block them by using the tools part of the browser. that gets rid of 99% of them happy

Hubs purchased the AVG program and it keeps popping up these stupid stupid, freakin stupid warning that you have to "heal" or "put in the vault" I think they are driving me over the brink..........


myLot reputation of 85/100. fwidman (5328)   ranked 15 out of 5,615 in computer  3 months ago

I use the AVG free scan that scans every day. I'd rather put up with AVG than the ads I see that tell me I have a virus (when I don't) just because they want to scan my computer lol
Driving you over the brink? wouldn't that be a short trip? rasp


myLot reputation of 92/100. Irishfrndly65 (7310)   ranked 31 out of 5,615 in computer  3 months ago

Yes it would...but that's beside the point. This thing goes on all freakin day long. It's worse on myLot or when I get an email from MyLot. Pop, pop, pop, pop, pop......gggrrrr


myLot reputation of 85/100. fwidman (5328)   ranked 15 out of 5,615 in computer  3 months ago

Isn't there something in the settings that you can turn off? That would drive me crazy too! Crazier than I already are lol


myLot reputation of 92/100. Irishfrndly65 (7310)   ranked 31 out of 5,615 in computer  3 months ago

I don't know..I just don't know enough about it to mess with it. What if I turn off something important? sad


myLot reputation of 85/100. fwidman (5328)   ranked 15 out of 5,615 in computer  3 months ago

I wouldn't want anything important turned off, that would be hazardous to your computer sad

That's enough to get anyone wild - including me!! I get some pop-unders from some websites I go onto & as soon as I see them, I close them but have never had that problem when playing a game - which I only do rarely as I need more time in the day for that.


myLot reputation of 85/100. fwidman (5328)   ranked 15 out of 5,615 in computer  3 months ago

Pop unders are as bad as pop ups! I don't mind ads on a page, why do they have to give me extra ads? lol


myLot reputation of 97/100. moonchild1au (839)   ranked 716 out of 5,615 in computer  3 months ago

Tell me about it & the bad thing is, if you're too engrossed in what you're doing, you don;t notice the extra screen open!! GRRRRRRRR!!

well, I really really hate pop up adds. that's why my father got this program for me (can't remember the name of it, though) and it controls all pop ups.
when something comes up, the program blocks it and shows me there is something waiting for me to open it.


myLot reputation of 85/100. fwidman (5328)   ranked 15 out of 5,615 in computer  3 months ago

I have a pop up blocker in use and it works for 99% of those ads happy Not much I can do with anything that is inside the game's program. I was just shocked that anything popped up since all the browser windows were closed.
