AVG COUPONS POP-UPS IN AVAST FORUM???

:frowning: Finding strange while browsing some AV forums since a few days are appearing pop-ups for discounts. Until now, it was for Avast software, which is normal on this forum. But now I get AVG ads on the Avast and Comodo forum. I donā€™t understand and I find this rather ā€œinvasiveā€!

For sure competitors popups wonā€™t come from avast!
Did you register in any reseller or security forum/service?

Which browser are you using and what are you using to block the ads ???

Yes, but Iā€™m on forum.avast.com, donā€™t see from where the pop-ups come from else from this forum site! Iā€™m using sandboxed Chrome.

do you ave AVG toolbar?

Itā€™s Google Chrome related, if I use IE9 everything is fine. Iā€™m puzzled, always thought Chrome was safer than IE9. Am I wrong? :o

Iā€™m using Chrome and donā€™t have any ads. :slight_smile:

Got it!!! Iā€™m a bit visually impaired but at the very bottom of the ad itā€™s written ā€œdisableā€ and X-Notifier which is an extension for FF and Google Chrome to alert new mail in Inboxes. I just have to uncheck in the option settings the search for similar product box. Thanks for help!!! :smiley:
