cccp_leha Posted August 31, 2003 Dammit, of all the things, of all the places, why are there porn pop-ups on Doomworld? 0 Share this post Link to post
Ultraviolet Posted August 31, 2003 Just don't visit the main page... or /idgames. 0 Share this post Link to post
Draconio Posted August 31, 2003 Heh, I guess I must be blessed or something that I never see anything like that on Doomworld. I never hear any music in Post Hell either, for some reason. 0 Share this post Link to post

pritch Posted August 31, 2003 Yeah, what exactly do you mean by porn? Just so we know you're not Amish or something and this really is porn. 0 Share this post Link to post

sargebaldy Posted August 31, 2003 god, people are still getting popups? it's your own damn fault you haven't upgraded to a mozilla based browser yet. 0 Share this post Link to post
SyntherAugustus Posted August 31, 2003 I'm using mozilla too. Thing is, newgrounds somehow bypasses the anti-popup code and give you popups. WTF? heh 0 Share this post Link to post

sargebaldy Posted August 31, 2003 yeah i don't get any either (on netscape 7.1). in fact, i haven't got one popup since i switched to using mozilla based browsers a year and a half ago. 0 Share this post Link to post
Reisal Posted August 31, 2003 try using the tool called Spybot S&D from http://safer-networking.org 0 Share this post Link to post
Amaster Posted August 31, 2003 Yeah, newgrounds may have installed pop-up generating code (activex?) on your machine before you upgraded to mozilla. 0 Share this post Link to post

cccp_leha Posted August 31, 2003 This was late last night; I went to DW and instead of the usual one pop-up, I got 2-3, one of which was something like "come see us, live and exposed" with tow topless girls next to each other. They had that look in their eyes, you can tell it's a porn site :) 0 Share this post Link to post
EllipsusD Posted August 31, 2003 Um... you might try checking for spyware... that could cause the extra pop-ups, especially if they are for porn. 0 Share this post Link to post

sargebaldy Posted September 1, 2003 aww, i saw darknation's name pop up as the last poster here and that's exactly the comment i expected you to make. i was hoping for something less predictable. 0 Share this post Link to post
Sharessa Posted September 1, 2003 I got Pop-Up Stopper on IE, and I dont get any pop-ups anymore...well, except these damn flash ads that have cropped up in the last few months. Fuck them. 0 Share this post Link to post

mystic Posted September 1, 2003 I miss all the good stuff, I guess it must have been a paysite otherwise we would probably not have heard about it. 0 Share this post Link to post
Aliotroph? Posted September 1, 2003 LOL Probably right Mystic! I use IE exclusively and I pretty much never get popups. It helps not to have spyware all over your computer. Funny cause half the popups I do get always say "This page cannot be displayed...". Hehehe, stupid popups. People who get too many popups probably surf naughty sites without their browser security turned up to disable ActiveX controls. 0 Share this post Link to post

I have 'spybot search and destroy' set to immunize with 'display dialog when blocking' set and it blocks crap when the Hotmail email login page loads. On some newsites I get different spyware being blocked. I went on a religious site to find a picture and it blocked the gator spyware, so heh. 0 Share this post Link to post
