Default Popups

I know this has been talked about before & many people have sworn by different programs to stop popups etc, but has anyone else like me only just started to get this problem?

I dont use any sort of program to stop popups or spam etc but until 2 days ago have NEVER had a single popup from this site. Now everytime I do anything here I get a stupid eBay popup that is annoying as hell . It seems to be the only one I ever get.

I havent installed anything new etc, has my good fortune just run out or are other people experiencing this in the last couple of days as well?

I've been getting the smileys pop up for the last few days, and I noticed the ebay one yesterday for the first time.

I'll have to do something about it too. What's this google toolbar thing ?

Ohhh yeah I forgot the smiley one, but that one was only a couple of times, the eBay one is over & over again, everytime you change a page .

OK, at least I know Im not the only one getting it, now it seems to have stopped for me, maybe I hurt its feelings? LOL

Mines been the opposite to you, smileys all the time, (as you say, it feels like every time you change a page) ebay, once maybe twice.

None today so far though. Fingers crossed I bet they come back when the USA wakes up !!

How bad was that interference ?
I'm just wondering about using the google toolbar myself.
