I just started getting a pop up advertising coming up from the bottom yesterday. Never had it on the forum before and not getting it anywhere else. No settings have changed on my laptop so I feel it's something related to the forum. Any suggestions?

What Browser being used, and are you using a AD Blocker like U-Block Origin or another like it etc.

It's a pop up at the bottom of the page and it goes up to almost a 1/3 of my screen.

I'm logged in and the pop up is extremely annoying.

Do you have a Ad-blocker installed or a Firefox ad-on extension like U-block, I Also have extension "Don't track Me GOOGLE"
as well, not sure if that has anything to do with it or Not, but I am "NOT" getting any Pop-Ups what/so/ever.
Still using Win-7 OS if that makes a difference ?

Ad on the bottom that rises about 1/3 of my screen every time I would go on a new page. Ad blocker doing the job for me.

It's a legit Google ad. I think they are experimenting with ad formats, because the footer ad has so little engagement.

Is there something different with the site ?
I'm getting ads at the banner and on the bottom of the page ...
And now I'm getting ads in the posts above the reply
It's annoying!
Here's an example....
