    Why are the links on random words on the site now? Is it my computer or what? If you put your cursor of them it comes up with a picture that says 'You've won a iPad!' or something like that. Even if I click page 2 of a thread it brings up another window?

    I haven't got this, maybe it's your computer with some advanced adware that applies random pop-ups and links to a web site. I mean, no website should ever go this far to advertise. Ever.

    I have this as welll. Certain words are highlighted Blue and if you hover over them, a Ad appears. I decided just to turn ad-block on.

    pop up ads in Powder Toy? I have the solution, for a measly 10,000 dollars, i will turn on your ad block services.

    Im sorry but if i start having this issue im turning on my ad-block... I have it off for this site because i support powder toy.. But really if i started getting ads like that i would lose my sanity if i didnt do something...

     

    AND also..... It may be malware too.. Ive been on other sites before where the WebGod of the site disabled adbots from doing that stuff.. But people still had it happening and He/She said "You have Malware then... I have those types of ads disabled." And what not...
