Default "Ad choices" pop up is driving me crazy!!!

7-8 pop ups per page is just too much.....what do I need to do for it to cease!

Thanks in advance

There are only 2 banner ads that I know of.
I have never seen a popup ad.

I've not seen a pop up either. You may want to investigate virus/malware on your PC!

I don't think that's coming from here.
I forgot that I may still be using viglinks which should just be creating links to certain keywords. No popups.

A little googling on 'gravity popup'.
I know the link is for Windows.

Not saying the forum hasn't been infected but until more than one person reports this I have have to assume it's not the forum.

Beats me.
I don't use them unless the forum has been infected.

I just remembered, I'm running AdBlock.

I turned it off and I'm still not seeing them.

I'm still going to say it's something on your device, Apple or not.

Yes on my iPhone/iPad. I just installed Adblock app by never ads, Looks like it has fixed the problem.
