Please, get rid of these tabs that open up as ad sites. Most of them are fine, but this one -->

And then another one for working from home. It's one thing that you can't simply close the tabs for these two pop up tabs. But the other thing is that each time these two ads come up, my anti-virus pops up and gives me a message that some fake facebook survey has been blocked. I forget the specifics, but next time it comes up I'll write it down.

It's fine if you stay logged on, but for those like myself who log in each time, those ads I imagine are troublesome.

Seriously, this is freaking annoying. Every day I get this stupid site at least once and my anti virus software informs me that it has blocked an attack.

It comes right as you're in the process of logging on.

Do something about this. Please. I have to force quit so many times since that stupid ad site doesn't allow you to close out of it without a stupid pop up message that it wants you to click on, and I don't feel like running my scan each and every time to get rid of whatever tracking cookies that pop up has in mind. 😡

Are you logged on indefinitely? Or do you log on each time you come on IF?

It just stopped coming if I click on one of the featured headlines--in this case the Zing Magazine headline, which takes me to the Zing Mag post, and then log in. 😆
