We dont have popups as I think you have spyware most likely...
Let us know when you find the issue and want this topic removed then.

It's weird.
I had no other browsers up, I'm on my work laptop, and they came outta nowhere about ten minutes before this thread started.
I wasn't quick to blame FST. I waited and the funny thing is hmmmm I was in a particular thread when it happened.
I'll have a look see.

Work computer...can't do it.
I haven't checked yet but it was a certain thread I was in. I haven't seen the pop-up since which kinda debunks the spyware theory.

Any chance of asking for which thread it was?
If it's a particular thread, it could always be some fucktard imbedding code. In which case, a few of us can check to make sure it is something in that thread.

No popups for me.
Oh and I prefer the MS spyware doodah to the other ones. It works really well. Not surprising really as they have the code for windoze.
Busyman

It's this site or something in this site is triggering it.
I just clicked the "Are You A Heterosexual" thread and a pop-up comes up everytime.
Maybe someone on that page has intrusive code in their avatar, post, sig, etc.
I noticed RPerry has the "I know your ISP/OS" doohicky in his sig.
BoB!1!

Do you have antispyware or pop-up filter working?
I do not.
I know some spyware can get a trigger from another website to "pop-up".
Maybe that's it....or maybe everyone has a filter/spyware blocker on. :dry:

It doesn't block anything out of the ordinary for me when I visit that thread.
Maybe you do indeed have spyware.

It's not killing me or anything but I wonder what on that page is triggering the pop-up.
I'll probably install Spybot, do a scan, then remove it.
If I get the pop-up after that and only come to this site then...well we'll see.

probably some adware triggered by "sexual"

Maybe you should get one of the Giant antispyware derivates. (Giant, Microsoft antispyware or counterspy.)
It's all the rage amongst the chavs in softwareworld these days.

Not MSN Messenger.
Uninstall it - it's useful for nowt, anyway:
Control Panel >> Add/Remove programs >> Add/Remove Windows components >> Uncheck Windows Messenger >> Click next >> Click OK.

That makes sense I guess. On my work computer I have never disabled those Windows Messenger pop-ups...the thing is I've gotten an IE pop-up in that instance. It's weird too that the "I need to be in loobi's anus" thread doesn't give me a pop-up anymore (pun?). It used to do give my browser wood every time. I have all this shit blocked on my home computers.
@buju - I don't really like RP's sig either but oh well..it doesn't really cause a problem with me computing.

the easy way to check for spyware is click run and type in msconfig and then click on startup, seeing anything unusual remove the tick next to it. if you are unsure what unusual is google it.
bigboab
04-02-2005, 11:46 AM
Never assume people know what Google means. :)
unusual
adjective
Rarely occurring or appearing: infrequent, occasional, rare, scarce, sporadic, uncommon. Idioms: few and far between. See usual/unusual.
Not usual or ordinary: atypic, atypical, novel, unconventional, unordinary, unwonted. Slang offbeat. See usual/unusual.
Deviating from the customary: bizarre, cranky, curious, eccentric, erratic, freakish, idiosyncratic, odd, outlandish, peculiar, quaint, queer, quirky, singular, strange, unnatural, weird. Slang kooky, screwball. British Slang rum, rummy2. See usual/unusual.
Far beyond what is usual, normal, or customary: exceptional, extraordinary, magnificent, outstanding, preeminent, rare, remarkable, singular, towering, uncommon. Informal standout. Slang awesome, out of sight. See better/worse, usual/unusual.
That really is unusual. :unsure:

I know. When you press search you never know what is going to pop-up. :crying:

Oh en there is a thread when you click on it then you get a log in pop-up from a porn site....but that was months ago and the thread has probably been closed....
Busyman
04-08-2005, 01:49 PM
Ok it's definitely confirmed.
I clicked on "Do Cable tidies get you sexually excited" thread and another pop-up.
This shit is definitely triggered by sexual words. I still think it came some initial code or something from this site (maybe someone's avatar) and I'm probably the only one not running a pop-up/spyware blocker (ont this particular computer).
Alright now I'll have to put Spybot on this computer.
(wtf is a cable tidy? :huh: )
