Annoying popup!

I'm really getting tired of that "Research" popup! Friggin' annoying! I keep saying no to it, and 10 minutes later, up it comes again! Is there no way to get rid of this thing? I'm ready to scream here!

I thought I had this fixed. I'll ask them again.

Personally...I rarely see it. Maybe once a week?

I don't see it much because I use IE, maybe you should switch, or maybe I'm too dumb to know what it is and it's there all the time?

I use FF and haven't seen it in a dog's age.

Same here. Hasn't popped up for me at all, as a matter of fact.

Then why am I getting it all the time? I use FF 5.

Could it be because you're special?

Edit: Do you have "Adblock Plus" or other ad blocking extensions/add-ons loaded up on your FF? (they aren't included automatically). Not sure if this has anything to do with it or not however I do run FF 5.0 with a Adblock and a variety of other Adblock extensions.

Using Safari on Mac and only saw it once. Maybe you've accidentally downloaded "PopUp Magnet"

Now I'm getting multiple popups per page. They are ads, cover the posts and attached photos. Of course, they don't cover any of the other ads on the page. They can't be moved and there is no "X" anywhere to get rid of them.

Very annoying and enough to discourage even visiting the site.

jdeg, I know you have to get support for the site, but (IMHO) this is bad.

can you get a screen shot of this when it happens? I can tell them to not run those ads.

Thanks, jdeg, I'll try.

As soon as I get my camera out it goes away, story of my life

I'm actually running FF 6, and yes, I do have AdBlock running. I'm still getting that annoying Research thing popping up every time I log onto Nikonites.

On a PC, pressing <ALT> PrtSc at the same time should capture the active window into the clipboard. Of course, I am assuming that when it pops up, it becomes the active window. You can then create a file in Photoshop or Paintshop and then paste the clipboard into the picture.

Thanks Mike!

I use TapaTalk.....no popups

Yep, That's the one I've been getting. Mine happen about once every two weeks or so.
