What's truly annoying, is that this is the only forum I am encountering this on....none of the others that I frequent. Most also use vBulletin as well, so that's not a common thread.

So far, the only thing that I can discern is unique to this is 318ti.org.......

Now that you guys mention it, I recently started getting, annoying green, double-underlined keywords that triggered pop-ups as I moused over them in Firefox. Just on this forum. Adding *intellitxt.com* to the Adblock Plus, ad-blocking rules eliminated them.

I forgot I still had that installed. Those are legit. I hardly ever see them. That's why I forgot.

Whether you are a paid supporter or not, the ads are the same.
Paid supporters supplement ad revenue.
I like paid supporters.

I have that installed too. It brings in a little income as well. Very little.

I have no objection to members using ad blockers.

Hmmm? I'd have to check.
I've had this forum for a long time and wonder if that's something I added years ago

This has been the first time someone mentioned popups.

Well, I'll be. I do exclude intellitext ads from sponsors.
I forgot all about that.

Or exude? It is now no problem for me, but some are (or were?) slipping through. I block ads, because I have one of those Macs that dies after umpteen thermal cycles.

You may only need a quickly installed plug-in.

What browser and operating system are you using?

Which pop-ups are you seeing?
