These ads!!!

---

Okay.. The ads and this site are pissing me off. I will click to read something and the ad will come up (Some dog food?) and thats it. Nothing more. Its been happening for a week or so now. If I can't go anywhere, I won't come here. Its not a pop up either. Just one of the banners.

mine says 5 DVDs for $49 it does that to me when i do A 2ND reply to a post OR EDIT. (oops sorry i hit the caps) i don't know.i did post something about it in with something i posted in the depression part but i deleted it. thought i'd just send a big long complaining email to diver about it. i don't know wut to call it really. it's just white and it says at the bottom of the page done but there is nothing but white. It like frezes or something like it gets stuck. i have to kill it and pull up the screen again and start all over.it only does it though on like a 2nd reply or edit or something. it's hard to explaine. yeah i thought it could be my comp but it only does it on this site. oh well i'll live. lol

Science Diet! I thought I was the olny one!

Yeah! Science Diet! Thats the one I get.

I'd buy a bag or two if it would make that thing go away!

am i the only one who gets "gay travel deals"?

Thats a pop up

oh, i thought that was what you were talking about.anyway am i the only one?

Perhaps they are using special targeting. Craig will get the ones about unicycling.

do they really have "unicycle travel"?

LOL! I know exactly what you're talking about...the science diet dog ad....it comes up and the forum doesn't, i've had quite a number of problems with these ads on this site in the past few weeks, a lot of them are carrying viruses....so people beware!

I recommend that anyone using Microsoft Windows install anti-virus and anti-spyware software, just in case these ads are installing viruses or spyware on your computer.

If you don't have anti-virus software, there are two free online scans available that I know about:

There is also a good free anti-spyware program called Spybot which can be downloaded here:

You may be surprised at the amount of things it finds.

I don't know about support for other operating systems though (Mac, Linux, etc.).

I want to add too that if you visit porn sites, there is a high probability that you've got viruses and spyware on your computer.

I have spyware and anti virus installed on my computer.

i don't know wut the hell i got on mine. lol virus killer, pop up killer, fire wall, ad ware.......lol i don't know if my computer can take any more "protection" stuff. lol

hahaha (Linux laughs in the face of the poor pathetic windows users)jk i'm a windows user too

I use Panda, although it is expensive because it's from Spain and the Dollar/Euro exchange rate means it costs more than it says on their website. They have a good online scanner though that really saved us at work when McAffee failed (it sucks, don't use it).

Go here if you want to do a free scan that will actually fix your virus problem:

the science diet doesn't seem to affect it anymore...sexpot, i have mcafee and it works great

the 2 best free anti-virus packages ive found to be are both AVG and McAffee. McAffee is the virus checker used by Microsoft for their emailing services, so is very good, but i already have that for my emails, so i opted for AVG which is equally good in my opinion. Ive gotten on comfortably with Spybot for a while now, but i installed Adaware as well purely on the grounds that the more scanning devices you have, the more crap you can get out of your system
