LordJaguar Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Every time there is a Survey ad at the bottom of the forum it goes blank after a few minutes and all I see is the survey Ad and top ad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panix04 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 <p>Is that a pop-up that only appears when you scroll down to the very bottom? I had been noticing that too - I assumed I had an adware/spyware issue.</p><p> </p><p> EDIT: Mine actually was a piece of adware. Uninstalled the program and voila, just the ads that are supposed to be there.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That deffo looks like a pop-up caused by adware rather than the GDS built in ads.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
