Hi

I just visited the boards today and a survey popped up, just wondering if it was supposed to happen... It seemed a bit suspicious.

Thanks :D

    And now pop ups are happening when I click anywhere on TS.

    EDIT: these were from something I had apparently added to chrome. Weird how they only happened on TS

    Hey Hann,

    Glad you figured out what was happening.
    It is odd that it only happened on TS :chin:

    Can I ask the name of the extension you added to Chrome that caused these pop-ups?

    Hi James
    I forgot what it was called, it popped up as swing copters game as an ad, I clicked it by accident and it added as an extension, only that when I blocked it and found the extension that I realised what it was.
