I got the same advert but for spark I believe. Only had it once and my antivirus picked it up I believe.

I use google chrome. For weeks now my browser has been blocking a script on this site. When I hover over the notification button it says 'this page is trying to load scripts from unauthenticated sources.' I have an option to 'load unsafe scripts' which I obviously decline to do so I'm not sure whats being blocked. It shows up on the (URL) address bar on the right,beside the star.
I just tried firefox and that is blocking content too. This time the notification is on the left of the address bar.

This would appear to be a new advertising platform and nothing more, thankfully no reason to be alarmed other than highly annoying and unexpected.

Will update further when I have more information at hand.

Kaspersky isn't just Anti Virus, its as it says, "Internet Security" its block suspicious sites from being able to download software in the background, and also blocks emails and attachments that can damage your PC.
Will it stop Windows 10 from reinstalling crap games apps after I delete them?

I'm on Vodafone. It's a pain in the arse area if it's advertising cause you can't go back or close it have to close the tab and reload the main page and then trawl through each section looking for the thread you are reading at the time cause its no longer in the new post list

‘Nothing more’! It highjacks the justcommodores tab in the browser and provides no way out (I’m not filling out their survey), and even waiting the 3 minutes or so, it doesn’t return to the just commodores site.

The only way out is to close the tab and open another and manually find the thread that I was reading.

It’s truely bloody annoying and a real turnoff for using this site.
