Pop Up Adds

Today was the first time I noticed pop up adds on here. They are so annoying. I am on my IPad and I never get them on here, even on Facebook. What's happening?

I get the pop up adds at the bottom on my iPad that I have to click the X to remove. They are annoying but they probably help pay for the site.

Google ad blocks and you can download for free. I have two on my system.

I have Adblocker Plus on my PC. There was a post about this software about a year ago.

If you go into programs, look for the ad download and delete it. When the ads pop up, there is sometimes a name at the bottom of the ad in tiny letters. I had that problem with ads ruining the board, they were nonstop. After deleting, they are gone.
