Asi es :) ............

yo se, corazon .....

but we need to remember that ecf is hosted on more than one server - and a problem might be server-specific. i wonder when the mods conferred if they all got on ecf through the same server????
there might be plenty of other people experiencing this issue but are not paying attention or accepting the ads as something new ecf started.

But have you used Malware Bytes?

Ads that are there and shouldn't be there are usually Malware, not a virus.

But it might be a bug in the site, cause I see ads and I am logged in. But I am not a donating member so I assumed that was normal.

exactly my point ........ most people would feel that way and not report it

I tried disabling NoScript and Adblock, reloaded the page and even navigated back to the main index page and I am not seeing anything in FF

EDIT: Opened up the forum in IE and saw the ads. Couldn't log in from there to see if they went away . . . IE crashed before I could get to the login :oops: I forgot how much I hated that browser . . .

Assuming ECF is not generating any code to pull ads from the outside world, it would be interesting to look at the source code of the web pages from those people that are seeing the ads.

whiskey won't be back till morning.....
can you leave instructions here for her how to obtain the source code?
