Forced Ad's what's going on?
I'm guessing this will get moved but what's going on with the Wal-Mart ad and Virus alert Ad while in here. I'm logged in and haven't had this issue till today. Not happening on any other forum or web address either. Have cleared everything out and reset phone. Any other ideas besides stay out! Lol

One report on the link while it is still functional:
Google's report:
Since this Pop Up only occurs on CF, on the IB Server, and bypasses 3rd party pop up blockers... is this an intentional irritant (as alluded to in an earlier post in this thread, to join as a paid member)?
If not intentional, what steps has IB taken to clean their servers of this malware?

It doesn't only occur on CF. It's also not a tactic to push premium membership. It's also not malware on IB's servers.
It is an issue that occurs in the advertising. I've linked this article before, but it shows that even Google has to pull ads out of the pool for different types of bad ads in the network:
https://blog.google/topics/ads/how-w...scammers-2016/
That is basically what the issue is here. IB pulls the bad ad when it's found, which is in part based on reports as found in this thread.

To add, I've been told from one of our IB staff that there's a plugin in beta for Chrome users that can be used to help with this issue for both mobile or desktop:
Enter the following URL in the address bar:
chrome://flags/#enable-framebusting-needs-sameorigin-or-usergesture
Then enable the highlighted option.

I think we should stick to one thread.
https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...on-mobile.html
A suggestion was offered to those who want to try it by using Chrome's own built-in option. I have stated it a few times now but not sure some are reading it and just want to reply.
