Well. I got home, eventually got on the pc, and where do I go first? GTP.

Popup.

I just thought it was me and it never has happened since...

Then Matt(Concept) IMs me about it, he states that he's getting them every time he clicks a link on GTP, anywhere on GTP.

Then he tells me that GC has them too, so I confirm it.

And I'm sure others have had them popup this afternoon.

What's going on Jordan?

It's kinda a double standard that GTP has legislature against advertising, yet it seems to be breaking it's own rules.

:rolleyes:

Comments and explainations are welcome.
 
Yeah, I am already tired of it. I clicked on a link and quickly clicked the back button because I clicked the wrong link and like 5 popups popped up at once. I need a popup blocker. :(
 
So it wan't just my pc then.

First I scanned my pc with ad-aware because I thought it was gain or something like that causing it to pop up (well GTP is the only website I really look at when i'm at home)

Well it's either someone has messed up, or Jordan has had to put an advert on GTP. It's not that bad though it only comes up when you go to gtp then thats it.
 
Why do I keep gettig it on everything I click? I have no other sites open or any programs like KaZaA running. :odd:
 
No pop ups here... Sounds like a Mazkid Problem. Close down some animal Porn sites and maybe it will go away Maz.

It's not just you, i get it at least one time every day, since Saturday...
 
Well that's an odd problem if several people here are having it...

I don't think we are all on the same animal porn site at the same time...
 
Odd we, we all seem to be getting different amounts of popup's.

I didn't seem to get any this morning/afternoon at the training center when I popped in.
 
i also get these pop-ups to0, but i thoght it was beacause i had some spyware, adware on my pc
 
Yeah, I got that one.

I tried going to the site again and it gave me some stupid, get software for free one and a stupid your computer is at risk one, displaying what supposedly was my ip address, but it wasn't.
 
I got one this morning (about 6:30 am east coast) and another when I logged on this afternoon at about 5:50pm. I didn't check to see what they were though.

Update: Still getting popups on every link I click on. I found that if I open KaZaA the popups stop. I closed it and came to GTP and the popups here started again. Wtf?
 
No pop-ups here.... Humm..., I wonder if Tom is on to something. :lol:
 
I've had one. I had a look in the source, and saw this:
Code:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- 12 hours
if (document.cookie.indexOf("popuptrafficbehind") == -1) {
var expdate = new Date((new Date()).getTime() + 43200000);
document.cookie="popuptrafficbehind=general; expires=" + expdate.toGMTString() + "; domain=www.gtplanet.net; path=/;";
document.write("<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=\"JavaScript\" src=\"http://view.popupsponsor.com/media/lx.js?a_id=8487&creative_type=3\"></script>");
}
//-->

Looks like you should get one pop-up every 12 hours, unless you have cookies blocked, in which case it will give you a pop-up on each visit.

I think! (Still trying to work cookies out! :) )

I'd have to say no. I go to a ton of animal porn sites and I haven't gotten a single pop-up.








Wait...:odd: Err, nevermind.

wd, was going to do that this mornin but forgot....
so it definitely is linked to this site. :odd:
 
I was browsing the board today also and heard the noise my pop up blocker makes when it confirms a block. At first I thought it was the song I was playing in Winamp, but now I know the horrible truth...! What is the pop up anyway?
 
I think Giles is definatly on to something. I cleared my cookies, then refreshed the page this is what I got:

This was also in the source:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- 12 hours
if (document.cookie.indexOf("popuptrafficbehind") == -1) {
var expdate = new Date((new Date()).getTime() + 43200000);
document.cookie="popuptrafficbehind=general; expires=" + expdate.toGMTString() + "; domain=www.gtplanet.net; path=/;";
document.write("<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=\"JavaScript\" src=\"http://view.popupsponsor.com/media/lx.js?a_id=8487&creative_type=3\"></script>");
}
//-->
</script>

I don't really mind the pop-ups. I just want to know if I have spy ware that Ad-aware isn't finding.

Oh! censor your IP addy. someone could-..... You know.

BTW has anyone entered the URL that is provided in the HTML code? I got this:

nopop = 0; if(parseFloat(navigator.appVersion)>=4) { var posTOP=screen.height/2-409/2; var posLEFT=screen.width/2-623/2; } function windowpop() { if (nopop == 1) { return; } var random=Math.floor(Math.random()*101); var console = 'http://mediatrack.popupsponsor.com/load.php?x=8487^^^205535^^^http%3A%2F%2Fads.popupsponsor.com%2Fmedia%2Fiserve.phtml%3Fa_id%3D8487%26creative_type%3D3%26ip%3D12.219.179.145%26httpref%3D%26media_id%3D205535^^^^^^'; window.open(console,random,'height=409,width=623,left='+posLEFT+',top='+posTOP+',location=0,menubar=0,status=0,locationbar=0,scrollbars=,resizable=0,toolbar=0'); } windowpop(); for (var i=0; i<100; i++){ var delay=i*25+1; setTimeout('self.focus()',delay); } n=navigator; nap=n.appName; ver=n.appVersion; s="na"; c="na"; j="na"; s=screen.width; if(nap.indexOf('Micros')>=0) { v = 'mi'; } else if(nap.indexOf('Netsc')>=0) { v = 'ne'; } else if(nap.indexOf('WebTV')>=0) { v = 'wt'; } else if(nap.indexOf('Oper')>=0) { v = 'op'; } else if(nap.indexOf('NetB')>=0) { v = 'nb'; } else if(nap.indexOf('AtHo')>=0) { v = 'at'; } else if(nap=='') { v = 'bk'; } else { v='zz'; } l_jref=escape(document.referrer); if(ver.indexOf('MSIE 6')>=0) { pref = "ms6"; } else { //pref=escape(parent.document.referrer); pref = "ms6"; } if (l_jref==pref) { l_jpref = 'none'; } else if (pref == "ms6") { l_jpref = 'ms6'; } else { l_jpref = pref; } if (v != "Netscape") { c=screen.colorDepth; } else { c=screen.pixelDepth; } j=navigator.javaEnabled(); self.document.write("<script language=javascript src=\"http://stats.popupsponsor.com/pv-trck.php?x=8487^^^3^^^^^^",""+s+"^^^", ""+c+"^^^", ""+v+"^^^", ""+ver+"^^^", ""+l_jref+"^^^", ""+l_jpref+"^^^", "1\"", ">");
