Posts: 30 01/30/09 10:24:10	Tags : None I've noticed recently that there are a slew of ads on this site. I assume some are intentional but a lot appear to be just pop-ups advertising some "pretty non-fishing" items. Are others getting these? Also, I recently switched to McAfee and it is issuing security warnings on a regular basis when I am on line here. Are others getting this also? Thanks Dave

I have never had a full popup though. Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

Posts: 2510 01/30/09 12:59:53	Dave, Are you running IE? Firefox? What browser? Have you got your pop-up blocker on? In IE, go to your "popup blocker" and "internet settings" (under the "tools" menu) and check those settings. AVG has good free antivirus along with spyware and mallware that will stop most anything like that. I use Avast!, AVG, and NOD... Also, what OS are you running? Windows XP, Vista, or other? BTW... McAfee is a good choice. I'm too cheap to pay for the upgrades, tho...

Posts: 31 01/30/09 14:40:26	I'm using windows XP with IE browser and have the pop-up blocker on but still get them. This appears to be the only site that I get them on. The pop-ups don't really bother me that much but occasionaly McAfee will bring up a message saying they constitute a security threat. I use ATT for my DSL and they just recently changed to McAfee for their spyware and virus protection and that is when the warnings started coming up. Dave

Posts: 730 01/30/09 20:25:54	I have enjoyed them. Just since last week I lost 20 lbs, my hair has grown back, got some new shoes, a couple of college degrees and even a date, that went very well thanks to some little blue pills that I got from one of the ads. Thanx JW! (Lashanda says thanks, too!) Check your fly often. Last Edited By: dr gonzoe 01/30/09 20:30:09. Edited 1 time.

Posts: 7527 01/31/09 10:45:52 ezOP	I wonder why I'm not getting them? I've made two notices to Yuku and so far no response. I am really sorry guys. I'm on it. Hopefully they will get this resolved ASAP.

Posts: 2514 01/31/09 11:55:52	Same here... Of course, I don't sign out. But I was on a different computer yesterday and did get some pop-ups before I logged in. I'm thinking Yuku only protects you from pop-ups if you are logged in.

Posts: 7528 01/31/09 14:19:49 ezOP	Still we "pay" for pop up free space. If some of the rest of you would complain to Yuku it might help?
