The popups must be coming from something on your computer. The forum does not open any popups (not counting the user-controlled features for opening links in new windows).

What you've got is akin to spyware... it looks at your browser activity and displays keyword-related advertising in another window. Personally, I think this is one of the most detestable ideas to come along. Anyway, you must have downloaded/installed some software recently, and this came along with it.

Website issues

By DNF - Wed 15/06/05 11:27:07 GMT

Website:

Nigel: Our recollection is that a few weeks ago, the site suddenly began running very slowly. Then something was fixed or changed and it mostly resumed normal speed. But now, there seem to be two new issues:

1) Extraordinary number of popups.

2) Something in this site seems to force one's browser to open up a side window of sponsored products. If this window is minimized or made smaller, it insists on re-opening or enlarging itself.

Not sure if these issues are caused by virus on our (viewer) end or if they're unintentional or if they're necessary for sponsors or whatever.

At any rate, thanks for providing this site at all. With whatever imperfections, it's still nice. If some people decide it's not worth viewing, they are not forced to use it...

Take Care

DNF
