IMAGE SHACK now supports POP UPs

GSpector · 05-11-07, 01:14 AM

To All that use IMAGE SHACK to store your pics, please let me know if I am wrong.

I looked at a picture of WIP for the Queen Mary in SH3, now IMAGE SHACK has always irrated me by replacing my Forum page with some ad and a small POP UP. When I close all the Ad's, I find I now have to log back into SubSim.

Now it seem's IMAGE SHACK has gone way over board. I looked 1 picture of the Queen Mary and now my system is now Non-Stop blocking POP-UP's.

If you guys insists posting links to IMAGE SHACK for your pick, I will have to stop viewing them unless someone can convince me, this rapid POP UP problem is not related to IMAGE SHACK.

I think I blocked well over 100 POP UP's from the time I looked at the pick and posted this. I think in about 5 Mins.

I had to Re-Boot to stop the POP-UP's.

:hmm: I have always had at least 1 popup when visiting imageshack but firefox always catches/blocks it.

What browser are you using?

Internet Exp 6.0.

I was getting the 1 POP UP as well before but this time even when I was able to get back to SubSim, it was almost non-stop. My POP UP blocker was going crazy.

Once I rebooted, all was fine.

Get FireFox

I use it and when using imageshack I only get 1 small pop up and nothing more.

Explorer is really open for pop ups and lets them go throught and easily infected with malware.

That's why I use POP UP Blockers.

As I stated, my POP UP Blocker went crazy when I looked at the 1st link to a Queen Mary pic that was for a SH3 Mod.

The site was IMAGE SHACK.

My browser is not the problem, those rapid POP UPs were.
