i feel like i saw this discussed elsewhere on the forum, but i'm not sure where.

i just got a pop up from the site, asking that i download some sort of "spy catcher", "spy be gone", "spy hunter", or whatever.

that is not a good thing i just got that.

I just got that pop-up as well. I X'd it off but then it would pop-up again if I clicked the Back-Arrow browser button. So I closed the browser window and started over.

That'd have been this thread in the Computer Forum.

If anyone can diagnose where the ad is coming from (without clicking on the ad), that would be helpful. Or at least, capture a screen image and email it to me.

Never mind - I was able to generate it myself. I'm going to pull that ad broker until they can assure that the ad is removed from the rotation.
