    I got it a few times before when using boards, but I also got it another time when using a different site as well. Hasn't come up on boards since I filled it in.

    Whoops. I just copied and pasted the redirected URL. It was something from scorecardresearch.com anyways.

    It's come up twice today, I've never seen it before.

    Your URL was valid, not sure what Snyper's at:

    I also saw something the other day, but had a few tabs open at the time so I wasn't sure it came from boards. I'm on a Mac.

    Got the same here, so since we're all seeing it its a pretty good indication that boards is whats serving it up. Like Cabaal it went before I could get a screenshot.

    Boards never knowingly uses popups. Never have and as far as I'm concerned, never will.

    'cept for PM notifications - don't get rid of them :)

    Not really popups in the traditional sense I suppose but nevertheless handy.

    We've discovered what happened. The people responsible have been taken out and shot. It wasnt just out site, it was a number of irish sites (and we have complained. Loudly.)

    Sorry about that.
