Popups in EAB

[kipper2k]

Is anyone else getting advertising popups in EAB while logged in. It is the only site where i am getting popups, all other websites are fine ?

I have no pop-ups or warnings, please check your computer.

Only get them before logging in.

never seen any on this site, best do a scan for malware on your system.

No malware, computer is clean, it is only eab they popup on, nowhere else, all cache removed, all browsers cleaned, all temp files removed, only 26 processes running in my laptop, not much more to check

What can you see in these popups?

[kipper2k]

advertising, lower left corner, i'll wait for the next one and try to see the source, about every 10 or so mniutes they appear

Only if you aren't logged in you get those popups:

I logged out and then back in, lets see if they stop

Ticking 'Remember me' should fix the problem (at least on that computer...).

I added some adsense for guest but it's "clean" advertising.
there is no way you can see one intrusive popup from me, ads have their location define in layout.

Can you post me a screen capture of this popup please ?

I had this issue with chrome. I ran a lot of malware/antispy progs and none caught it. Solution was to uninstall chrome (using windows 8 manager) scan for any registry keys and files remaining and remove them and then reinstall. Fixed it a treat

[kipper2k]

I uninstalled and reinstalled chrome as well and haven't seen one, one of the popups i had was a small video for "Febreze" they all appeared in the same lower left window location, i haven't seen one since i reistalled and cleaned out all my chrome registry settings, but only on EAB did i see them.

here is my netstat report.

C:\WINDOWS\system32>netstat

The yyz connections translate to google. (why so many ports active is beyond me)

I use the newest version of Mozilla Firefox with ADBlockPlus and NoJavaScript plugins and im logged in as a member, but if i hower the hand over a text like this; Test , a underlined word or a hidden link, the damn commersial-ads pops up.

[TCD]

It's definately not EAB then... Have you checked other sites too?

[ma693541]

Yep, and it's only here on EAB.

[TCD]

Does it by any chance look like this: http://botcrawl.com/how-to-remove-text-enhance ?

[ma693541]

I dont have any Text Enhance extension in Firefox and ADBlock are not disabled for EAB. I will try to loout and in again, to see if the ads are gone now.

Please try to take a screenshot.

Hi,

It was a small window that popped up in lower corner, since i have reinstalled i haven't seen them so i am not sure what was the cause
