Check to see how your filters are set - you may want to raise the level a bit. Isn't it maddening when that happens? I've decided to keep a list of companies that advertise so invasively and NOT do business with them... and I intend to let their CEOs know, too.

I use adblock plus for firefox and maybe that's why I'm not getting it. I don't see any ads.

Sounds like you have a trojan on ypur computer. Similar to a virus. They can Hi-Jack your machine.

Is this happening to anyone else?

have you done a security update/scan? this really sounds like an issue w/in your pc...esp if you are getting it in both ie and firefox

Mine turned out to be a virus. My daughter worked and worked and finally had to reset my computer. So, I am so thankful that she could fix it. Not sure where the virus came from.

That happened to me a couple of months ago. It's not a pop up it's a redirt, very annoying. Run the antivirus and malware programs. I ran them a couple of times and it was still happening. Then all of a sudden it quit.

Hi, MsTicky2 is right on. Sounds like you a a virus that's messing with your computer. Better get it cleaned up. just happened to mine.

YES! i am in MASS and it happened once a day for almost a week straight. I have popup blocker and Norton Antivirus and it was still happening. i think it was that MYFACE site somebody else mentioned. I would just be reading responses and scrolling down and all of a sudden that stupid ad would pop up!
