    Another "feature"

    What's up with the popup ads while browsing the forums? I have 3 other sites that I know for 100% sure don't throw popup ads.

    I have noticed on occasional a pop-under that shows up when i close the browser window or on other random events

    at least it happens rarely and not on every freakin' page turn
