Ok, as Nancy alluded to in the comments of the previous entry, I just loaded my blog and got a pop up ad. Not for poker, but for some other crap. Not in a separate window, but right there in the same window covering up my blog.
NOT. COOL.
I must check into it. If anyone else is seeing this, let me know. Also, if anyone else knows what might be causing it, let me know.

I saw it once the other day on your blog. I figured it was some remenent of a web page I visited previously…
Irwando says
Yeah, I’m getting it. I’d try removing external references (flckr, webstats, haloscan, whatever) and then adding them back one at a time. Course, it could be Dreamhost inserting them in, but that’s kinda random.
Me says
I’m wondering if it has anything to do with Dreamhost, since all the servers went down earlier this week. I’ve never had any complaints before the past 2 days.
scott says
I don’t see anything
Gavin says
I saw a poker pop up once yesterday. I went looking to show you, but you were gone. I’ve only seen it once in over ten or so visits in the last few days.
carter says
I got a popup, but google blocked it. Go google!
Cassie says
I don’t see one.
I read your running post-let me haunt you with this: Koala/Luke’s 20k Relay!!!
:oP
Me says
Cassie — I know, I gotta get prepared! 🙂
Nancy says
Friday 11 A; PDT, a pop up ad for WinFixer. And I am on a Mac!
becca says
You know, I’ve gotten TONS of popups for WinFixer lately, both here and at home. They are taking over the internet!
christina says
yeah, i just got the same winfixer pop-up and i am also on a mac. how random!!
Jen says
No popups here – though I also have the google toolbar.
Holden says
Yes, I get an ad for winfixer. However, if you use FireFox, its a non issue. I notice it is only affecting Explorer. I don’t know how to get rid of it.
Me says
The Google toolbar doesn’t block it, apparently — because I *have* the Google toolbar and still saw it. Hmm. Becca, are you getting the WinFixer thing on more sites than just mine?
becca says
I don’t know. I swear I got it at home once after all my IE windows were closed!
christina says
i’m using safari and still got the winfix
chris says
i’m using firefox on win2k and i haven’t seen any popups, but then this browser blocks almost everything.
Cassie says
i just got it. i’m using IE
jelly says
i’m using firefox on xp and got the “firefox blocked a popup” message. hope this helps!
Nancy says
I still get a WinFixer window each time I am on your site and I am using Netscape. I have activated a pop up block and hopefully that will fix it. But not I can’t upload images to blogger without disabling the block. What a pain
Jon says
What popup? Seriously. Ok, maybe I guess I chimed in late. Oh, we missed you at the XC Relay tonight and the meal afterwards (Cassie and Mannie, Holden, Jeff Sharp, Vic, Jessica and Wes and Waverly and I).
