Can other people here confirm this is true...? -
June 1st 2012, 08:45 AM
Has TeenHelp resorted to pop-up adverts when you click on certain internal links of this website?
Or is it just me? If you've got some spare time, read this:

I haven't had any of these.
 Perhaps they have but not that I'm aware of or have experienced.

Doesn't happen to me either. Could be a virus on your computer you should probably scan it.
Whatever it is, chances are I've been there. If I can make it out, you can too. |

Nothing for me either. Maybe it's something going on with your computer? Like another user suggested, run a scan or something to make sure.

I would say no but I'm using adblocker but when I used it at my girlfriend, I didn't get any and she doesn't use adblocker.

Ima scan it. I got full AVG and don't download anything much or visit any dodgy sites so this would be unexpected.

The popups are just medium sized windows with crap like "you're the 1 millionth visitor, click to claim your reward". Nothing obscene. If you've got some spare time, read this:

Did you have any other tabs or windows open at the time? It could be from them. Also, this is just my opinion and what I've seen , but I've heard that AVG isn't the most reliable antivirus software. Maybe you could find another free scanner and try that just to make sure it's not anything like that? Whatever it is, I hope you get it worked out. Good luck!

I use to sometimes get pop-ups on my parent's computer, but since I've gotten my own, I haven't. But usually I'm on other websites at the same time (TH on safari and Facebook/hotmail on Google Chrome). I don't think I've ever really gotten the ones your talking about, usually it was NetFlix (which I can't even use), graduation-classmates-finder thing, and dating sites, but that was only every once in a while.
I've said it once, I've said it twice, I've said it a thousand fucking times That I'm OK, that I'm fine, that it's all just in my mind But this has got the best of me, and I can't seem to sleep It's not 'cause you're not with me, it's cause you never leave |

I'm going to close this thread because BDF's question has been answered, and Rob has confirmed this. BDF, if you would like the thread reopened, please don't hesitate to PM me.
