I've been getting pop up ads while visiting the SCCoA. It seemed to start last week, right around the time when the site went down, and now when I go to the home page I get one, not everytime I visit, but like once a day (I also delete my bad cookies daily)

Screen cap it and post when you get one.

CTRL+PrintScreen

Paste into ms Paint and save as jpg.

I haven't seen one yet. But you can get them from leaving a site. So if you have a home page set, then go to SCCOA, that home page could fire off a pop up.

The SCCoA is my home page, and I use a Mac. I just did some experimenting...I remember I did a search using Excite, so I tried it again, then clicked "home" to the SCCoA home page, and I got it again, so it must be from Excite, plus it seems to only happen after I delete the "ad" cookie from Excite, then after it happens I get the cookie back. It was a different ad, but it was the same size, and type of pop up box. Tried to save it, but I didn't wanna download it. I saved it as a "simple text" document, but the page came out blank. Besides I think I know what it was from anyway. If it continues to happen, and I think I was wrong about it coming from Excite, I'll save it as an image, in JPG, and post it, but I think I'm ok. Thanks for your help!
