You shall remain nameless. But you know who you are - you evil people who linked a damn popup window to certain threads in the hardware forum. As if "punch the monkey" and "virtual casino" weren't bad enough!

Could you at least point me to one of these threads?

The only thread I've seen recently with anything popping up is some old resurected thread in TSB....

[SteveC]

uh?

Kruzin,

It used to happen when I'd hit "back" out of "General Hardware" but it doesn't seem to be happening now...strange? It was some kind of pop up add for buying cars or some crap like that. It did happne in a few other threads but it was so random, I couldn't tell you which one.

"Censorship on this forum..." thread.
Some idiot has embedded a picture that is stored on a xxx server.
Whenever you join the thread, it ask for the Username and password to let you see the picture, 'cause you must be a member of the site to have access to its resources.

It's not an xxx pic! I can mail it to you if you want! (it's quite funy)

Ok, it's DEFINITELY one of the ads, since it just popped up when exiting from a thread which only had posts from me, Muad'dib, and Jammrock!

I was just in the Gaming forums and it popped up when I exited the "Game Server Survey" thread. It never loaded, but it opened a window like it was one of those ad things. I closed the ad window and went in and out of the thread, but it never popped back up again. Maybe "Unexplained" is back?
