shaxper, I'm still getting this- It appears to pop up only on my computer and only on CCF. Interesting. Considering that it's only happening to you, and only on one computer, the most likely issue is that you have malware on your computer. Do you have an anti-malware program? I recommend Malawarebytes free version, myself. If that doesn't solve your issue, I will pass it along to proboards, but I'm 80% sure that's going to solve it. Also, are you actually still using Flash on your browser? If not, try uninstalling any version of it you still may have on your machine. Most browsers and websites stopped using it a few years ago because of its security flaws. |

I have brought the issue to proboards' attention. You can follow the discussion here. Hopefully they'll have a better idea of what is going on. |

If you're sure you wiped EVERYTHING, including the cookies, why don't you speak to proboards directly so that you can get to the bottom of this more efficiently without me as a middle man? Who knows -- maybe it's in your wireless router or something. Here again is the discussion I started with proboards help. Why not chime in yourself and speak to them directly? support.proboards.com/thread/661647/ad-prompting-flash-installation |

Hey shaxper, the pro boards people fixed the problem. They removed some ads and all is well. I had the pop up for almost 2 weeks. |
