this is about the [cartalk.com](http://cartalk.com) site?

I’ve been complaining about it for months, no response.

Major annoyance is that it takes a long time for the popup to appear, and until it does, none of the links work. Then when you finally are able to move to a different page, you go through the same thing again.

there is a long discussion here somewhere, but I can’t find it now.

Worse thing, is that cartalk is losing viewers. I go back only rarely now, this bug makes it difficult.

Thank you for your concern for the site’s traffic. Please note that I have sent this along once again, as I said yesterday, and it is the weekend. I will notify you when I hear back.

I can bypass this popup by hitting tab 14 times, entering name and password. If the popup beats me I still see it but I don’t have to click on it to proceed. It hijacks only the mouse, not the keyboard.

I just ignore them but really if I search for anything like air compressors yesterday, I get continuous pop ups for a week or two. Even the credit union got into the act when I happened to look at their site. But I honestly have no idea why I’m getting a neuro muscular pop up or a ladies undergarment pop up. Honestly all I ever ordered was men’s under garments. I don’t know anything about tab tab tab.

Still not as bad as emails and calls on my cell phone. Got one today that I had won a couple million. Just call this number, then emails about loans. I don’t need a loan, especially the kind where you get the money the next day from Eddie.

There outta be a law I tell ya.
