Has anyone else been getting a bunch of SURVEY pop-ups on the site of late? Just trying to figure out if this is a problem on my own computer or something related to our banner ads (all of which should have NO POP-UPS whatsoever).
Thanks.

Yeah, I've been getting them pretty much every time I click on a link on the site...Moving from one page to another, and I'm getting them. I just figured it may have been a problem with my own computer too actually, since I did use to get a lot of pop-ups earlier. But yeah, there's been lots of them recently.
Not a LOT, but i did get some surveys

I havn't really been having a problem. Maybe just a few here and there.

Ditto. A couple, but it's nothing that bad.

Honestly, I never noticed that there were that many more pop-ups than usual, but I was just over checking out one of the Horror threads, and every time I went back to the main forum, a survey would pop up. Like 5 times in a row.

I've just seen a couple for ORBITZ
My browser has a blocker, but I turn it off on this site, because it makes it easier to read private messages.
Scary.... Just got my first survey pop-up leaving this thread.

Survey says!: Pop-ups suck. I dont get as much anymore. I installed a different search/toolbar on my windows and it came with a pop-up blocker, so now only little ones get through.

This issue should be resolved. An advertiser had changed creatives (banners) and NOT told our ad provider about it, which was causing the pop-ups in the first place. There should be no more survey pops on the site.
Thanks for the feedback.

For those who want to get rid of popups forever:
Mozilla Firebird (http://www.mozilla.org/products/firebird/why/)
Internet browser with integrated pop-up blocking, as well as a bunch of other cool features.

these past few days have been the worst ever for me with pop-up ads from joblo.com
Everytime the font page loads up, i get at least one ad, if not 2. The most i've ever gottin was 3 at once. And some take a bit to load up, and get stuck, so i have to wait till they load in order to keep going on with joblo.com I understand the usage of these ads, and why they're there, but my goodness it's got to the point where it's REALLy annoying now. I've had some halloween survey's that pop up ALL the time every time. And i remember a while ago u said there shouldn't be any pop-ups on the boards, idk if you've changed that but i've been getting MASS loads from the boards now. I go to type, and 2 pop-ups come up and i have to re-type what i thought i was typing etc. Maybe it's just me, but anyone else having these mass pop-ups lately?
And i've been making sure i didn't have anything else open, no kazaa or anything. Just wanted to see if it's just me that all, no bad feelings for joblo.com (afterall u've gotta get paid somehow)
