Title: GTM has secret popups?
Post by: Stagfish on September 14, 2010, 11:59:22 AM: No, not the type of robot, those annoying adverts.

Sometimes when I click on tournament discussion a new tab opens with google adverts, is this happening to anyone else?

If the problem persists, I reckon it could be a virus of some sort. Run an antivirus or antispyware check just to be sure. I use MalWareBytes myself, mostly because it's free and it gets rid of them.

Post by: TeamXtreemer on September 14, 2010, 12:31:55 PM: Manwarebytes and AVG are the best you can get.
