Tons of ADDS??? - Sans Peur - 04-24-2020
I have been on this site for a couple of years and posted quite a bit. Never had a problem until recently. What is up with all the ADDS and Pop Ups?? I can't scroll or go to a post without an add. Even between the page and the post a pop up will take over the entire page and I have to x out of it first.
Anybody else?

I use Tapatalk to view this forum from my phone. Adds aren't too bad, but every couple of posts there is a couple of posts which are adds or articles from TOC News Bots. At least their relevant!

If you are seeing pop up ads then your browser has been compromised. There are ZERO pop up ads delivered by this site. I would suggest you scan your system for malware.

I will run some antimalware programs. But I will say that it only comes up on this site. I am on a few other boating/fishing sites and dont get it there.

Use malwarebytes and let me know what the results are. I use google adsense to serve ads and there should be zero pop ups.

If it only happens on this one site, it may be an ad creative going rogue rather than a full browser infection, though running Malwarebytes is still a sensible first step. I'd also check for suspicious extensions, since those often behave differently per site. Worth noting whether the pop-ups appear on mobile or desktop too. If the scans come back clean, that points more toward the ad network side than your machine.
