    Default Ads Blocking the Board

    This just started today. I am on the Board and some ad comes up taking up the entire screen. When I click out of the ad, I have start all over.

    If it is on an iPad and the ad is from the app store it is an apple issue and not a board issue.

    Maybe check out your anti-virus/security settings, you may need to make some adjustments to block rubbish from appearing.

    I was having that problem too. It was agrivating, and they kept popping up one after another. My husband went in and deleted it from the registry (whatever that means) That helped for several months but then somehow they found a way to get back in again last night. So I guess we gotta go to the registry again. Don't know how else to get rid of the nuisance.

    That was happening to me also. I went into the Programs section on my computer and there was a program called either pop ad or ad pop. I deleted it and the problem went away. It had been some download that was messing everything up.
