Lucky Winner Pop Up?

A few weeks ago someone here posted a picture of a girl in the NSFW thread that was hot linked (pulled right from the origin site, not re-uploaded). The picture caused a login prompt to show up which I had to remove. Stuff like that could also be a culprit, but it would happen on every page load, in which case just tell me where it's happening and we'll ensure it gets removed.

Malwarebytes is also a really good program.

I'll close NA before I put popups on it, and you can quote me on that. This isn't from our site, but probably your computer if I had to guess. Load SuperAntiSpyWare, Spybot S&D and maybe a virus checker like AVG Free.

I haven't seen anything about this in the Mod section of NA so I'd say it's a scam unless Dain is being sneeky! Although if it says you win your weight in Bacon it might be Batty playing around! HEH

Yeah, that doesn't sound like it's attached to NA.

Doesn't seem like something Dain would implement.

I'll be there is a phishing thing that ended up in your cookies and just randomly picks sites to pop-up on and act like it's related to trick you into clicking it.

I use Chrome and got an ad pop-up which I blocked recently. It was the first time I've gotten this from NA.

I've never seen it on NA, but its on just about every other site

CONGRATULATIONS! You've won
