Any other non-subscribers getting connect.274media.ads.link4ads loading when they go to anandtech?

Tonight every time I enter the forums my history says the last site I've been to was the one mentioned in the title. The annoying thing about this is that I have to hit my thumb button twice to go back instead of once, and this link randomly refreshes itself.

Now, I've done spyware checks on myself and nothing shows up, and the only site that loads this is Anand... is this some sorta spy software that runs itself only when you're on the webpage? Mind you, I don't mind the advertisements at the top of the page, but I really don;t like the idea of possible sending info back to whatever this is... or am I just paranoid?

been doing that all day for me too

 

[b0mbrman]

sometimes when I hit the back button (or rather, press Backspace or Alt-Left)

Mebbe this means it's time we became subscribers...

Bah, i hate having to hit "no" on my security fronts when that stupid ad pops up :disgust:

 

[Zorba]

I am getting it too, very annoying.

I'm getting it twice with every page load.

I'm also happy that 24-7 Media's stock is worth about $0.05 and dropping fast.

YES, at first I thought something was wrong with the back button on my mouse, but them i figured out that add are tring to load twice, so I have to hit back three time to get where I was:|

 

[Nocturnal]

lol i think they switched it around or something cuz im not getting any ads. just one but the long main one says "cannot be displayed"

 

[Pabster]

I'm a subscriber and I'm getting pop-up ads. Annoying as hell.

 

[yakko]

[Derango]

I have that problem in Windows and it pisses me off :|!!! Every time you open a thread, post a message or refresh, you get several annoying errors!

I don't have that problem in Linux using Konqueror though . The banners don't show but there are no pop-up complaining about them.
