Yes actually, every single page that loads I get asked if I have foxtel and have to watch the ad at the side. I think it's broken.

use chrome I've not received this ad once.

I have no adblocking installed, just a vanilla install of chrome

<3

Maybe the ad will stop playing once Dave gets foxtel

haha chrome is so s*** that it cant even display ads properly.

or does that make it awesome?

Annoying ads that still hang about moving on the side even after you closed them are annoying.

i get some annoying foxtel add that pops up and plays video+sound in my chrome on two different threads.. Made me remember that:

. i had my speakers on - some sk must've used my pc today
. i found out about adblock working in chrome this morning

thanks

what forum, what browser

Weird I'm running Chrome 3.0.195.27, I havn't got any annoying ads, just the normal one top RHS

I.E 6.0 at work (I know, but I cant change it)

Saw it once with Firefox and then blocked it.

I keep expecting spooky to post in here ;/

I haven't had a pop up once, but every time i load http://staging.ausforums.com/index.php/439207/?agn=thread&id=2809306 it displays a foxtel ad in the top right, free iq etc

no audio

is what I was getting at there;

everytime I load that url i get a foxtel ad, no audio just the free iq stuff
its never popped up or anything

I had it once, QGL with FF

Im watching Foxtel right now and so should you.

yes, ive had it for years
assuming you were talking to me and not trog or ticcles

Sorry trog, I get pissed when people don't provide enough information when raising a problem but evidently don't think twice about doing it myself!@

I was using QGL UI (non staging) and Safari 4 on the OS-Awesome. Using Win7 and IE8 now and it's stopped popping up on every thread load. Once it becomes a reasonable hour on a Saturday morning as I was forced out of my luxurious half drunken slumber by the dogs I will go check Safari.

(I lie, I just have to go do twosies and read the paper)

Yep, pops up every time still with Safari on OS-Awesome.

The f***ing ad is even on swellnet.com.au what the f*** its taking over the world

OH YOU NEED A BIT OF IQ YOURSELF

I think this has happened before on safari.. I'll turn off ads asap but in the meantime maybe use a REAL BROWSAR! ho ho ho

:(

It's not doing it in Chrome (still does it in Safari) but silly Chrome doesn't support Xmarks yet or vice versa, probably vice versa but I'm going to blame Google straight up.

OH YOU NEED A BIT OF IQ YOURSELF

HAHA, this bit redeemed the ad for me. I lol'd.

is it still doing this now dude? I can't reproduce on Win Safari so it must be a Mac specific thing.

Something else you can try: go to http://qgl.ausforums.com/cookies/ . Hit refresh a bunch of times, then try again.

It does, but you need to be using the dev channel release of chrome though. Also it doesn't do password syncing.

Xmarks for Chrome Alpha

We're excited to invite you to test Xmarks for our latest supported browser: Google Chrome. The extension system for Chrome is still under heavy development so you'll need to be running Chrome's development channel for Windows.

Will do trog although the MBP of awesomeness is at home so will have to do it later on tonight.

Hey fellow Foxtelogists
Our Beloved Leader has decreed that from next Sunday all Foxtelogists shall have free access to every New channel for the following two weeks.

Hail Rupert

Yep, still happening - Safari 4.0.3, OSX 10.6.1
