Default OpinionMart Popup??

What is up with these pop-ups coming from LS1Tech?

The URL reads:

FWIW, I am using Firefox 3.0.12 and I checked 2 other machines to ensure it was not local to my PC for some reason. (i.e. spyware junk, etc.)

Here is a screenshot of how it appears on the bottom right of the screen.


It has a brief "splash" screen the size of the window shown prior to going to the page. I have javascript window resizing disabled in FF otherwise I think it would enlarge to the page following the "splash" screen as well.

Get the Adblock Plus for Firefox and you will magically enjoy no ads. Ever.

I'm getting the same kind of thing after opening some threads. I'm using Google Chrome. It actually redirects me to another page and I have to back up to view the thread.

This is the page I get directed to:

Thanks but that's a bandaid for the true problem... Firefox nativity handles pop-ups from all other sites on it's own.

I was using IE at work and did not get the popup. I sent a PM to IB about the matter yesterday. I do not think it is a popup from LS1Tech. Years ago, I had this same problem, and it was something to do with someone's sig pic. I know that's not the case this time, but like I say, I PM'ed IB.

I use firefox, and i have been getting what i believe is the same popup that has been described here already. The strange part is, my default browser is firefox, and the popup has been in IE

i find this really funny... i have adblockerplus on my firefox... and i get popups in IE without using either browser.. anyone know how to remove it

You may have some type of spyware or what not on your computer... AFIK, the issue on LS1Tech was fixed.
