Yep, here too. Started a few weeks ago. Can't seem to stop them. It's not a virus as far as I can tell and if they are, they got through 2 up to date anti virus software

Popup ads are pretty much a deal breaker for me. Completely ruins the website.

Never get pop ups just the standard marine adds, outboards - kiting -sailboarding - boards style adds in a few small boxes . All appear to be related to the website and not spam. Mehhh.

Hmmm... that's less than best, definitely shouldn't be any pop-ups!

Shall investigate & ensure it's not happening. Thanks for letting me know

Although the pop ups have halted now - it was on chrome. They had a habit of glitching the screen just as I scrolled which opened a new window.

Glad they are gone for now.

Personally, I believe that pop-ups are a nuisance, and there is NO WAY that I'd want seabreeze to be part of that kind of stuff.

There is some virus/other stuff out there that can "inject" pop-ups, independant of whatever we do ..

Are you able to share the brands/message of what the pop-ups had?

They were showing up on safari on iPad too. Made the pages hard to load and jump around. Not coming up right now though. Usually a banner across bottom off screen.

I was getting pop ups on Safari too.. They were RAAF ads. Had a really cool picture of a Hornet. But fark me, I get yelled at enough at home. Certainly not keen on the airforce.
