Anyone else getting something called symboliclyn.com and other windows popping up when they come to this website? It's very annoying.

*Edit: nevermind my pop-up blocker was turned off, fixed now.

Yeah, I'm updating a bunch of games and it's annoying the crap out of me. It's constantly slowing me down.

Mozilla gets them too smart guy. Turning your pop up blocker blocks them just fine, I just hate having the little bar come down ever time I do anything.

It doesn't matter. I use Firefox and I get that stupid bar that says "Firefox prevented this site from opening a popup window."

It's annoying as hell, even without popups...

on mozilla I'm getting a blackscreen for a split second when the page refreshes. Wonder who has decided they want to destroy this site. Or maybe this has to do with the adwars and the companies attempting to thwart popup blockers. My IE popup blockers weren't stopping them so they have obviously done something new.
