Wow - within the last week there are a TON of pop-ups going on on this site on my desktop! I still have AdBlock Plus, yet they are still punching through. WHAT IS GOING ON? This is annoying as hell.

Im getting one all the time from the main moparts.com screen after I click on the forum. That's the worst one because blocks the whole screen.

I use Ad Block Plus with Chrome. Occasionally(0nce per year?) it will show up as uninstalled? Go to extensions and be sure it is installed and the latest version is there and active. Right now I see zero pop ups using Chrome/Ad Block Plus

I just looked into moparts with a fresh (no add ins or extensions) install of vivaldi, no pop ups at all. It's a chrome derivative, you might want to give it a shot.

There's one caveat, I also use https://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts2.htm hosts file, whatever pop up you're seeing may be blocked there in my hosts file before it gets to the browser. Since I can't see what you do I've got no way to check my file for it.

Hmm, still nothing here. Firefox is my daily driver. I have adblock (showing it's blocking 2 items) plus and AdNauseam, AdNauseam isn't showing that it's blocking anything on moparts. I'm lost. Maybe try removing and reinstalling adblock?

It is horrible. I just don't get the logic behind these infolink pop up things. It is just driving users away. And the less people are on here it seems the more aggressive the ads get. The site is unable on my cell phone.

Like I've mentioned about a half a dozen times before, I use brave for my browser. Brave is free and it is way better than Chrome or explorer or Firefox. It's a privacy browser. But the important thing is I get zero pop-ups from info stinks. Neither on my phone or my desktop. To me info stinks doesn't even exist anymore. I highly recommend that you all switch over to brave.

Brave looks like a great option. Can I sync multiple devices? I looked a bit on their website and didn't see anything about syncing. I use Chrome and have all my devices synced......my bookmarks, bookmark bar, etc are all exactly the same across 4 different devices as well as using Google drive,photos,Gmail etc across all my devices. Not sure Brave offers all those options??

Im not smart enough with computers to know about syncing. But if I save a password and username on my computer, it seems to be saved on my phone as well. Automatically.

I've logged on several times today. Two popups appear within seconds. If I wait a few seconds more, they both go away. They are SO effective! Gee - I just want to buy their product!

I've not seen one single solitary pop up ad since I got Ublock Origin for free. Seriously.....not even one!
