Fraudulent pop ups occurring

[LS Tractor Owner]

This morning, I keep getting a full screen popup "adobe flash player out of date"..... I don't use flash player.... you can't close out the window, to get rid of it, you have to close the TBN window. When reopened, it pops up again, about every 30 seconds... very annoying.....it is only occurring on TBN. Here is a screen shot:

I get the same popups for both for Firefox updates and McAfee renewal (which I don't have)
Mucho annoying!!!

I noticed this yesterday until it became unbearable. I installed Adblock Plus and stopped the popups instantly.

Yup... I've gotten the McAfee renewal (which I don't have) also...

Thank you for the tip on "Adlock Plus".
It seems to be working!

You can also turn it off for some sites. Some sites will pop up a warning saying you cannot proceed with an ad blocker, so you just turn it off for those as needed. I know TBN needs the legit ads to survive, so I'll turn it off for this site once they get the current issue resolved.

Investigation underway.

We're looking into it. That's definitely not something that should be popping up.

I've run Ad Block, now Ad Block + for over a year. No pop-ups here.

Please post the url you were at as well as your device type and browser so we can narrow it down.

If you see the popup after this post, please reply.

Looks like the main link to tractorbynet has been corrupted with malware. I tried 3 devices two Android and one Windows and the main link brings up the Google 5 billion search win scam. All devices are malware free and protected. Devices scanned multiple times and no malware issues other than tractorbynet link on all devices. The corruption is in the link.
