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 donāt understand and I find this rather āinvasiveā!
For sure competitors popups wonāt 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 Iām on forum.avast.com, donāt see from where the pop-ups come from else from this forum site! Iām using sandboxed Chrome.
do you ave AVG toolbar?
run AdwCleanerā¦click delete buttonā¦ http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53253.0

Itās Google Chrome related, if I use IE9 everything is fine. Iām puzzled, always thought Chrome was safer than IE9. Am I wrong? :o
Iām using Chrome and donāt have any ads.
Got it!!! Iām a bit visually impaired but at the very bottom of the ad itās written ādisableā 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!!!
