[NSC] Anyone else getting adverts pop up, when you click on a thread to read it.

Err.... not fixed for me.
I have a small pop up advert on the Big Board for “Palentir-backed Wego & the Autonomous revolution “ Must be of interest to somebody. But not me.

If it happens again, I'll ask that my account gets deleted so yet more loss of revenue.

If you're not logged in you could still get the ad very occasionally, but if you're logged in you should never get it. In fact I don't see how you can as I've deleted the code from the site completely.

If you do get it - please post a full screenshot so I can check it out.

Yes started happening today and I'm always logged in.

If I see it again, I send you something Bozza. Possibly something cached locally so I'll clear cookies etc.. laters.

My Sophos at work is going mental all the time I have NSC open. Keeps saying it has blocked a site but doesn't say what. Presumably the same issue. And I am logged in.

There was no issue, or certainly no security issue anyway - NSC hadn't been hacked or similar.

An existing advertiser had updated how one of their ads was going to work. I'd had prior notification, but not had time to explore the impact. When people flagged it, I removed it.

If you are getting specific alerts to do with NSC, any and all information you can supply will help me investigate as if things don't happen for me - and they're not right now - I don't know what I don't know.

Sorry - should have said it is Sophos Web control. Don't know why it is even on my PC but every time I open a thread, I get a Website Blocked message saying it is blocking a website that is against our company policy. Were it our usual proxy server, I could look at the logs but I'm not sure how that works for the local version.
