Coupon codes get hijacked

[fogMann]

Every time I click on Coupons in the main ECF menu at the top, my browser gets hijacked by an advertisement from vaping.com. I see the coupon code page for about half a second, then the page switches as shown below. Happens in Internet Explorer and Chrome. Tried rebooting a couple times - didn't help.

Is this just happening to me? I searched a bit and didn't see any posts on this. If it was happening to everyone I would expect to find an uproar. Virus/malware?

Yeah, I have that happen when I receive an ECF newsletter.

Perhaps vaping.com is "Not ready for prime-time", as they say.

Same here.
I click the little "down" chevron and it closes.

I zan - I didn't notice the little chevron. Thanks.

Thanks, I was running into the same issue. That's like a total grrrrr, it shouldn't be happening like that, it does look like a hijack.

Thanks! same here with safari 10 and using adblock plus.
it can be avoided in firefox by using noscript, that will stop it. That's the only workaround that I tried successfully for now.
