half @s*ed pop-ups

i don't really mind pop ups on AF, i just click the little x and don't bother reading them, but today, almost all of them don't work. i can't close them until they load all the way, and alt f4 doesn't work either, not only do they stay there, but after they load, it just say "THE PAGE CANNOT BE DISPLAYED" so wtf is up with these damn things? are advertisers not paying up. or is there something wrong?

There is no Pop-ups on AF the only ads are the banners at the top and bottom I don't think Iggy likes pop-ups.
What you got there is some dun dun duuuuuuuuuuu.....Spyware to get rid of it just go to www.download.com (http://www.download.com) and search for ad-aware it'll clean 'er out and get rid of the ads

wow they're gone! so now i gotta find something else to bitch about, wtf is up with the home page, the latest discussions haven't been updated since this afternoon, whats going on?
