Hi,
Ive just noticed that i cant browse around the forums like i usually do without getting hundreds of NewEgg Pop-ups. Its very annoying.
Anyway to get rid of them?

I cant be arsed with that program, ive used it before.
What makes it odd though, is that its only recently that its been happening, and that Opera has built in popup prevention support.

BoomAM, Can you give me the approximate time/date this occured? I think it was a problem with newegg's ad stream. I believe this problem is fixed, but please feel free to email me if it is not. kkubicki@anandtech.com

Cheers,

Kristopher

To be quite honest, i cant remember exactely, it was earlyier on today. Between 1 and 3 if i remember correctly (UK Time).
They popped up every time i opened a new AT windows, or clicked reply/quote/edit, and when i closed AT windows.
I`ll keep an eye out for them in future and jot down the time and situation that they came up in. I have noticed that they havnt come up within the last 5 or so minutes.

I have also noticed, the sometimes when i have a AT window up in the background, that it`ll sometimes change page to one of your sponsers websites. Upto now, ive had ThermalTake, Abit, Asus, GigaByte, NewEgg and a few others. I dont know if thats related.

In a way, i wouldnt have been that bothered about the pop-ups, But NewEgg has no interest to me, they are a US company, selling US products, to US people. I live in the UK so its of little relevance to me! If it was something like dabs or watford electronics then i could sort of put up with it.

Thanks for the replys guys.

LMAO......it never pays to correct people's spelling in forums. It's also annoying to correct people's speech in person. I know, I do it, it's assinine.
