forum moved.. Use FireFox, it has an built in popup remover. The ads will soon be goon, fred promised.

Also get the AdBlock plugin..

Yes, it will be removed as soon as possible.

It is every 30 seconds. Come on Fred. Sorry there has to be a better solution. This is the worst forum host I have ever seen. Sorry it is just frustrating even with the popup blocker. it keeps flashing. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!

Firefox here too. No popups seen and no speed problems.

I also use Firefox and have NEVER seen a popup with these (or the old) forums.
Anyone who still uses Internet Explorer to browse needs their head examined.

I just tried back with IE and it's definitely slow, my apologizes. I will wait a little (1 week) and if it doesn't change, I will look for another solution

. For now you can still use FireFox + AdBlock it's lightning fast here.

all those happy firefox users makes me wonder if the whole pb crowd has been moving to firefox

Hmm, I see the ad-spam on the bottom of the forums, but no popups... why are there 3rd party forum hosting and why not do it natively? Much better and faster that way.
