A couple of explanations in this thread (Soldierbot sums it up nicely in posts 4 & 6) https://www.hdforums.com/forum/forum...rum-issue.html

Just a thought but what YZR has is a actual pop up and what some call in what you see at far upper right and bottom middle are sponsor adds that do change but base on cookie browser that a bot put in there.

Now that may be totally not how it works are how one should say it.

What YZW has is an actually a pop up. That can be stopped on an android with chrome or a PC.

Now some forms you do have a pop up like to add your charge card 3 digit code and if you block that, on a PC, a little red flag will show up in top right. Hitting that will allow you to get the popup with that card.

Now all devices and operating software are different.

Robb may have an answer if first poster give some info on device and browser.

This is going to be what a bot thinks you want. If I go look at plumbing, that will be there pretty quick. Google has a setting to adjust but not turn it completely off. I assume IB gets some kind of pay for that.

I have thick skin, and rarely am shocked. I ignore it. I do my own searching. Never from there, email or pushes on my phone. I use safe APPs and shortcuts I save.

Not long ago, a USER said he had TEMU there. I had no clue what it was. Googled it. Now occasionally I see TEMU adds there.

Reboot. If that doesn't fix it, clear your cookies. On a PC, look at your start up in profile. It may have something running in back ground and causing it. Best of what I have seen, HDFORUM has no popups and it's not the HDFORUM.

I personally close all but one tab on my PC and routely hit the 3 bars at lower right on my Android phone and clear all.

Now I leave the HDFORUM up and when searching or modifying pictures, I can switch back and fourth still composing a thread with attachments or spell check words and how there used.

These ads seem to have gone away, for now at least. Also, I have never done a search for this product, in Spanish (which I don't speak) or any other language!
