Pop-up Video

[LOREN]

Whenever I go to another forum topic to look at I get a pop-up video ad.

You probably have a virus or malware on your device.

I should have mentioned, the pop-up is from smokingpipes(dot)com

 

[LOREN]

I may be wrong about it being smokingpipes, but it is for high-end pipes. Trying to click on it doesn't take me anywhere, just turns off the pop-up.

so what’s the problem? You’re using your phone to view and participate in a “free” forum that is ad supported and sponsored. It goes away when you click

 

[LOREN]

Not "claiming" it's a "problem", just "asking" about an "ad" on a "forum"

Can you post a screenshot maybe?
I am not seeing any pop-up ads, on phone or laptop.

I'll try to remember to do that.

I never get pop-up videos on this forum. I don't get any pop-ups. I do get banner ads if I inadvertently click on them, like the banner ad on the home screen that separates the forum sections from the latest posts.

This one?

There are no pop-up ads from any advertisers on this site, so this is confusing.

I get the above ad while using my phone sometimes. I think I may inadvertently touch something to trigger it. It takes up the entire screen and goes away when I swipe down
