Blighted by pop ups all day today with adverts stating I e been selected to win various iPhones and Samsung phones etc - I’ve logged out of B&A, cleared viewing history, cache and darts etc in Safari and still getting pop ups - anyone else experiencing the same?

Very annoying but you can stop it by pressing the X in the top right hand of the screen when it starts loading if you’re quick enough. Only happens when you click onto the main board and on threads.

I use chrome too and don't have this issue. So maybe specific to browser and\or browser settings?

I downloaded an ‘ad blocker’ off google .. took 2 mins and I don’t think I’ve seen an advert pop up since.

Guys we’ve had this kind of post many times
Proboards don’t actually have pop up ads
What is very likely is your system is full of cookies or malware which is creating these ads
Give your cookies and caches a clear out Run a spyware / malware program , some are free
This should solve your issues

This started to happen with me yesterday. Nearly every time I accessed B&A on my phone. Switched to using Chrome instead and everything has been fine since.
Thanks for the heads up.
I've already got one crummy Samsung phone I don't want any more 😁

Snap I had it yesterday and down loaded an ad blocker. Fingers crossed it will be ok as I’ve had nothing since.
So is it connected to safari? I know Proboards say it isn’t them but honestly I only got it on the two Proboard forums I use.
Yesterday was a nightmare.

Yep and only happens on B&A site. Tends to stop it when I restart my phone.

Definitely an issue with site redirects I think here. Multiple clear outs of cache, cookies and refreshing and restarting settings and still getting redirected.

B&A is the only site this ever happens on. Martin, thanks for the private message. I'm not an expert but I'm fairly certain that the "red hot milfs and the desperate ,naughty matures that are 2.4 miles from you" are not genuine so I'd advise against inputting your credit card details. Hope this helps and feel free to message again if you need any further advice.

My first post since February. This site is now totally ruined by pop ups. Sorry to hear that owd lad. Hopefully it will get sorted out. I'm a giggling imbecile on these things, (come to think of it, I'm a giggling imbecile generally), but are you on google chrome? It must be a great comfort to you to know that the people desperately trying to help you are thick as s**t.

This site is now totally ruined by pop ups. did you not read my post ? proboards do not allow pop up ads ok, now if you suspect an ad is creating pop ups scroll down to the bottom of the page ( the very bottom line ). there is a link that says "report ad" proboards will then investigate
