Pop-ups and translucent ads

16 years ago

This forum is now displaying translucent ads overlaying the thread text. If I try to post a reply, a new window to forums.ivillage.com is created. I find this kind of re-direction impossible to tolerate. I know the site is free, but they already load pages up with advertisements. This new thing is a bridge too far. I will post no more as long as this obnoxious pop-up thing goes on.

Hi Para,

I think I ran into these Ads late last night & just re-booted as I couldn't get them to go away.

Could I ask you to pls. pass your comments onto GW (don't remember where anymore, "Letters & Comments")?

Am guessing you'd be speaking for some of us, not just yourself; TIA.

Brad,
i am here every day and have never had a translucent ad pop-up. you may want to visit trend micro house call. it is free and effective. there may be something that has attacked your internet browser. good luck.

They are just trying to make a living so we can have free service. Someone has to pay for it. I don't like them either. Norma

i thought of one other thing that may make a difference. i use fire fox not internet explorer. i think that fire fox does a better job with the pop-ups.
