Watch out ****READ ME NOW****

Watch out, one of the f*****g pop under ads has tried several times to install a new dialer on my system.

Check that your dialer is still dialing your ISP directly, and not via a premium rate phone line.

If you don't use it make sure InternetOptions/Advanced/Browser/Enable Install On Demand is NOT ticked

Looks like I'll be making a donation shortly.

Yikes, that's not good at all - haven't come across that one yet myself, but I think I may well go across to the Proboards forum and make a complaint. That kind of thing is not on :mad:

[Catriona]

Complaint registered... hopefully I'll get a response soon!

BTW, if anyone else is getting sick of the pop-unders appearing in several windows, rather than just one, apparently Proboards have had to change their policy on that... seems they've got an issue with their current server, and need to raise the money ($5000) so they can move to a new server if needs be, hence the increase in ads recently :blackeye:

If they do have to change to a new server, they'll probably be down for around 24 hours, though they say they'll give enough warning that I can warn you guys in time, rather than having the board just vanish, like other boards I can think of... :evilgrin:

which tries to run a program on your computer. Dirty 'B*****d' advertiser.

I caught it because I do not allow autoinstall or autorun for remote programs.

Only for a few hours... there's still one ad-free credit left, but they will be back full-time as of February if none of you lot cough up to pay to get rid of them! It's only £5 a month, and between everyone on this board, you're talking £5 a year at the most, but me and KF can't afford to pay for it all, so we need your help!
