Had two days without the pop up ads, and tonight is once again ridiculous.

I got the 8 second wait twice without managing to go anywhere - I only visit the ebooks pages.

Then I started with the Goodgame Emporium popups - currently they totally fill the tabs at the top of my screen with no less than 14 tabs I can see.
Who knows how many more I can't see.

I have taken over 5 minutes, so far, to type this post, because the Goodgame popup keeps on happening every few seconds.

Whoever your new Ad company is needs a damn good talking to, because far from getting a pop up or wait every 4 hours, you're lucky to go more than 4 seconds at the moment!

iPad....unusable, ads every turn of page & wait -Seconds to continue to Mobilism. Very, very frustrating for someone who is disabled & uses a mobile device more than a desktop.

Windows XP
Firefox 17

Adverts all over the place - have bookmarked various pages and they always appear on open without fail (perhaps because it never seems to remember your login status even though I've got cookies accepted/on etc?) but biggest problem is that when they are not for casino's they are for porn - poor choice of advertisers especially since one of the forums bookmarked is the child ebook forum (viewforum.php?f=1295).....
Adblock no good as far as I can see

Windows Visa Firefox 17.0.1 and I am running Eset antivirus. Backups are Superantispyware and Malwarebytes. I get a blank page with an 8 second delay every time I click on a new link. It is so intrusive I have cut back on Mobilism as a site I visit often. It has been going on for about 2 months.

Cookies are ALWAYS enabled on my laptop.

I've had no major problems since my post you quote, but tonight, Avast is giving me a trojan warning with every page change, plus the 8 second wait.

Edited to add: I have had a trojan warning four times while typing this, plus a 4 second wait each time. Coming back to edit to add this bit, I've had the trojan warning twice, plus the 8 second wait twice before I get enough time to type this - thank god I'm a typist by trade and can type fast!

Trojan warning from Avast on every single page.
Open links in new tabs, and when I go back to them, they are sitting with the 8 second wait on every one of them (I had 6 open).

When entering the site tonight, I had to log in despite having my nick and pass saved for automatic login. "Trojan blocked" warning as soon as the site starts to load. 8 second wait.

Every page that I open, it does the exact same - trojan warning then the 8 second wait.
Very often it happens twice at least before I see a page actually open up.

No ad actually loads in the meanwhile. It is a nightmare for those of us having this problem, and I don't believe I'm alone.

Edited to add again: Clicking the Thank You button sets off the process, and to come back and type this, having NOT left the site, I've had to go through the trojan/wait process no less than THREE times. It's completely ruining the site.

Absolute pleasure to use the site this morning!!!


NO Trojan warnings.
NO 8 second wait - even though I don't actually mind that so long as it's only once per visit.

Fingers crossed it's fixed properly now, and not just temporarily as seems to be happening recently.

And so the sorry saga carries on.

Back to the trojan warning on every page change, and the 8 second wait - every time I click on something/anything.

Less than 24 hours of worthwhile useage. I'm grateful that the only thing I use are the ebooks forum - i can't imagine what it would be like trying to access anything else!



10.01.13 - Been fine since post above (1 x 8 sec wait as expected). Tonight, back to trojan warning from avast on every page change, along with the 8 second wait each time again. Getting to type this post has taken me 4 clicks, 4 trojan warnings, and 4 x 8 second waits. <deep sigh of frustration>
The ad company you are using need to sort out their software, and you should definitely stop paying them till they sort it out properly. My clients wouldn't pay me if I gave them a service like this.

Blank page with message regarding Ad and 8 sec countdown to return to Mobilism.org nearly every 30 seconds and/or page reload !!!!!!
Xp and Opera with Adblock
Site is now unuseable for me, sorry :(

Blank page with message regarding Ad and 8 sec countdown to return to Mobilism.org about every other page. Seems that scrolling with mouse wheel triggers event more often.
Using Debian 6.06 with Iceweasel (like Firefox) 3.5.16
using Ghostery, Firestarter (firewall).
Usable, but bothersome.
