    i think you need your tech people to do some work. I find now that every time I use your site I get all kinds of pop ups and spam. I wonder if your site has been hacked.

    it happens with many web sites now. The linked advertisement can contain spam like activity. Use the free tool ADBLOCK PLUS as an add on to any browser, and this will eliminate most of the junk that happens. Had to put this on the wifes profile, and the browsers she uses. now its all much better.

    And ADBLOCK PLUS does let advertisement through. It just blocks the bad advertisement junk.

    AdBlock Plus has an option to "Allow acceptable ads" that's checked by default in the options, but it can be unchecked if desired for more complete ad blocking.
