There is that thing to the right with the jack a$$ and his hand on the other Jack a$$ shoulder that for the last four days starts on its own ever time I try to post can it be stopped or is this BFT's way to push this type of junk at us....
If I want to see or hear from that kind of junk when I try to post I will go else where...
When this happens the only way to get it off is to shout of my computer it covers my hole screen...
Does my heading cover the post.....

Use Firefox with add-ons that block ads, Flash, scripts, etc. Here is a screen print of what I see with Firefox while looking at this post.....and never any pop-ups!

Bassrods, we do not run ANY pop ups. It is your settings or something your doing most definitely.

I am not doing any thing but typing to post and the thing to the right starts to play and when I try to stop it it goes to full screen and the only way I can get read of it is to shout down my computer...
It does this two or three time then I can post for a time or two or a day or two then it does it again....

On the pop up to the right you have a big start button but not a stop...The start is in the center but where is the stop?????
I don't know anything about computers and don't care too but if I don't start or push the thing that starts it I DON"T WANT IT.....But it keeps on starting on its own....

There is a little Grey bar on the bottom to the far left is the stop button, but the video should absolutely not pop up and should not automatically start either. You should have to push it to start it.
I will check into it but I am almost positive its a setting on your browser. Have you tried using Firefox instead of explorer or visa versa. Is anyone else having this problem?

Visiting unsavory sites can put spyware on your computer that causes pop ups regardless of what site your on ... Hmm what site have been on ??? LOL
Get a spyware removal tool like adaware or spybot there free download.

"I don't know anything about computers and don't care too"
Cliff, you may have to learn more about computers if you want this fixed. If YOU don't like what YOUR computer is doing YOU are the only one who can fix it. You just might have to do some research and fix it yourself if nobody else is experiencing the same problem. I view this website from three different computers and have never had any problems with any videos or adds in the last few months. I use Firefox on my home pc and IE at work.

Clifford, reminds me once I had a client who owned a restaurant and one day he told me that his employee was stealing from him and he had caught him doing it on more than one occasion. He asked me, "What can I do to stop him from stealing from me?" I answered, "Fire him!" He replied, "I can't do that because he has been too valuable of an employee." I then replied, "Well then you will have to live with him stealing, because he isn't going to change." The way I see it you have a few choices:
1) Live with the problem
2) Be willing to learn about computers so that you can fix your problem
3) Invite someone over (not me, if I have a problem I have two children that can fix any problems I ever have) who can fix the problem for you, and give them a modest gift in appreciation for their help.

Sounds like you my friend are infected with spyware and/or a virus. These malicious programs will cause popups to show no matter what site you visit.
You need to run an anti-spyware tool to clean your system.
You can get several free ones:
[url "http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/default.aspx"]Windows Defender[/url]
[url "http://www.download.com/Spybot-Search-amp-Destroy/3000-8022_4-10122137.html"]Spybot[/url]
Or google for [url "http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&rlz=1B3GGGL_enUS278US278&ei=N62VSbqHGIKUsQPP-pSuBw&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=1&ct=result&cd=1&q=spyware+removal&spell=1"]spyware removal[/url] and choose one of those.
