Default Pop up problems

Any advice to someone using an iPhone and iPad with constant pop ups that redirect you to another page regardless if you click or hit the back button? Nothing to be done but just close the window and open a new one.

Have you considered a pay service that would remove ads for “members”. I’d hate to think being forced to reload a page was a way for the site to generate more clicks.

If you browse logged in you should never see pop ups.

Default Nasty ads

My Cel phone, yesterday and now, my IPad pops up the nasty ads (some reward center, Amazon and EBay ) only when visiting this Lexus Club site. The nasty thing is you can not get rid of it, unless you close the browser. When you reopen the browser, the nasty ads jump in again. Any of you got this? How to get rid of this nasty thing from your Cel and IPad. For the desktop and laptop, I know how, but Cel phone and IPad, I have no clue. Anyone?

This has been happening to me too and is really frustrating. It renders the site useless on mobile.

Yep, one of the advertisers here has allowed them in, IB is both trying to block and identify exactly who the bad one is.

Thanks for the screen shots, if you see others that are different please keep them coming!

There are other urls that have similar behaviors. If I forget to turn java off and get another I’ll post it up.
