I have pop up block enabled on 3 different browsers on my S7 (Chrome, Firefox and Opera) but when I'm browsing torrent sites, specifically PB, KAT or ET I constantly get new tabs popping up with shíte advertising etc. Only ever happens on these sites as far as I can see. It doesn't redirect the page itself but opens a new tab and none of the 3 browsers seem to be able to stop this despite the pop up block enabled. Any ideas for how to stop them? Phone is not rooted and I'd prefer to keep it that way.

I know talk of torrents is a no no on this site but since I'm not asking about them but about pop ups surely thats ok??
