I'm on my ipad again and things seem ok now.

well done as usual.

Glad to hear it. And thanks to everyone for the reports. I watch things very closely, but because of how things split out (regionally, by platform, by location, by web history, etc.), I never see everything -- so I rely very heavily on bad ad reports. Which is not to say they don't stress me out, lol, but that's often how things that slip through get fixed.

There may be a few stragglers still in there, but my hope (and guess) is that they've all been cleared out of the ad systems now (takes a few hours for changes to flush through the system).

I just received a "Your Opinion Counts" pop up, it has a 6 yr old boy with sunglasses and a Mohawk. I'm on my iPad using chrome. The ad moved into the middle of screen. I can post the picture later tonight if you need to see it.

That should clear out, but I'll go looking to be sure. Opinion pops are the toughest to nail down because advertisers and unscrupulous networks sneak them into (piggyback them onto) a few legitimate loads here and there and they don't generally stay in place very long.

Generally speaking I need to know what ad position launched the survey (usually helps to know what product the survey is asking about -- but then that sometimes requires clicking through on it which I wouldn't ask anyone else to do).

Anyway, as above, should clear out, but I'll comb through again.

Thanks! On the iPad and all is good so far!

You're all the best!

This one happened this evening.

This is the third or fourth time today, on two different computers.

I'll get into a page, and can't back out because adclick has loaded up my back button.

Huh, that's a very very odd one. Our ads load in iframes, which is to say they're little web pages of their own that load as children to the main content page. They really shouldn't have any impact on the back button for a normal browser.

Was it MSIE on both computers?

I also need to sort out that white space on the top ad in your pic.

Man oh man do I hate ads. I feel like it's all I do now.

Will definitely look into it, thanks for the info.

Yessir. IE 8 on the XP laptop (the source of both pictures), and IE 9 on the Windows 7 desktop.

Firefox is the only other browser that I use a lot, and I rarely use it for BP at home.

Okay, thanks, that should help me try and replicate it.
If you can't replicate the problem, I'd be more than happy with blaming AT&T. I haven't had this issue on my work PC, but my BP browsing from work is almost exclusively Firefox.

Thanks for checking it out.
