    a javascript bloker is also quite useful

    ublock origin blocks the ad for me but generally means I have to click the link again as nothing happened the first time i clicked it

    Hi guys,

    This has been happening for me since 1st or 2nd of jan. I know this as it was during the wave. As Donut Nyamer just said, I use ublock origin too and it was that what was being triggered. Like them, a second tab would open in firefox with nothing in it. It also resizes the browser screen. It has happened pretty much since 1st or 2nd of jan until the last few days.

    I have been wanting to post about it but wasnt sure if it was a problem with my browser / pc, which led me to doing a full system restore. When i saw this post i was glad as its a bit weird.

    EDIT, this happens for me when logged in and not.

    When not logged in and clicking on e. g. 'Software' in this is popping up for a fraction of seconds and the site returns to the view before (so not to software).
    With Opera and uBlock Origin and FF with uBlock Origin and NoScript.

    Here, I see a popup opening wherever I click on site (not logged in). Ublock origin kills it amost instantly. Looking at ublock's logs, the URL of the killed popup that time was "https://agacelebir[dot]com/4/3877601"

    Edit: just happened again, same popup URL.

    I don't experience any ads or pop-ups.
    Logged in; MacOS 10.11.6; FF 78.7.0esr; uBlock Origin+Ghostery+Nano Defender Pro; DNS server*: Google Public DNS

    But one thing to add: previously I have manually blocked those three squares and its surrounding frames with the annoying and CPU hog gif animations above the Fresh Releases and Archives columns.

    *I suggest to give it a shot, try changing your setup about the DNS server to 8.8.8.8 perhaps it can block some of the harmful servers.

    It is possible the ad delivery channels got compromised? lacking decent security is known among ad networks

    uBlock stopped the connection to these new shitty ads, but not the first time :(
    but there is a new layer of ads, everytime the website logo is clicked

    The website is an unusable, worthless POS without an adblock or two set up, very sad stuff

    Comes across like a very dodgy website, like the dirty bowels of the internet reminiscent of fantasy anime milf porn & dick enlargement pills. i havent connected to these ads but if i did, im sure thats what id see!

    How the hell can anyone talk about "releases from the sister site being trustworthy" if that very sister site, which simply holds the list of links to websites which then link to actual download sites, is riddled with scumbag ads on every click?

    Ublock origin comes with advanced settings (inline/1st/3rd party scripts, 3rd party frames) blocking, if needed, right? And logger.
    Loading pignuwoa.com, luvaihoo.com, counter.yadro.ru... when browsing sister site, is per user, optional?

    it's not about every single popup, only adware are the concern. i've sent link to this topic to the advertiser, they claim that they filtered all reported campaigns.

    @No Avenger I never said i needed to go there.. i got most of the new year releases from other sites anyway.
    I have not much need for Adobe Premiere & hiphop drumkits by deaf teenagers
    I notice you didnt address anything i said, rather got offended about my literary style and essentially told me "if you dont like it, lump it" - a logic extremely easy to see the flaws in,
