G'day Ueee - We do not use yieldmanager or any other sort of viral, spam, or malware, etc on these forums. It will be coming from your end somewhere. As I said these forums are squeaky clean and rated as such.

Pretty sure you will eventually find the problem somewhere on your device(s). Won't be the first time or the last that this has happened and it always goes back to the users computer, not the forums.
If it were the forums there would be hundreds of people reporting the same problem(s).

For the information of all.
- The ads on these forums are either vetted by Google for their ads and by me for the side column ads which are a pure link back to the sponsors site and nothing more.
- There is no html code allowed in the forums other than that used by Admin for notices, so no malware or viruses, etc can be placed into threads, posts or blogs.
If anyone has a problem with popups or any other advertising it will almost definitely be at their end and not here.
In the last 12 mths we have denied registration to over 206,400 known spammers. We are under constant attack from these scumbags. Occasionally the odd one gets through and puts spam on the forum which is almost always deleted within minutes. Once every blue moon one gets through and sends out a couple of emails which could have malware in them but even then they can only send out one or two before they are caught and banned. A further 2000+ have been automatically reported to authorities or banned and another 6473 spam posts have been automatically dealt with. To top this lot off the Moderators ban up to another 10 spammers per day and edit many more spammy posts.
These forums are clean and to the best of our ability the members are protected better than almost any other forum in the world.
Hope this clears up any misgivings that anyone might have about popups, spam, etc on these forums..
Cheers - Neil :U
