Default new look??

There is a LARGE message at the top of my page saying 2 new messages. I've never seen that before. Is it an advertisement or did the board change something? I want to know before I click it in case of a virus.

I am getting the same thing. Think it's another service advertising to get you to subscribe to another mail service. I may be wrong. Will wait for other answers.

If you put your cursor on the sideways triangle in the upper right corner, it says Ad Choice and the X says Mute This Ad.

Indent have that on my screen but I'm using an iPad so that may make a difference. But up at the right of my name, it says "Notifications" with a 1 after it and I know for sure that is a personal message because I got a copy of it in my email.

something must have attached itself to your browser or computer.
that is not a board generated event.

I get this on a regular basis, but never click on it as it appears in the space for ads at the top of the screen.
