What's up with this pop-up survey asking me about candy bars every time I log-in? I've filled it out 3 times and it still pops up. Anyone else getting this?

Could you send me a screenshot? We can have ads removed, and it sounds like perhaps some rogue ad is misbehaving. I've never seen that.

Here it is @iacas. Obviously if this is adding revenue to you guys then I can deal with it lol...just thought I'd see if anyone else was getting these.

I don't think it's coming from us. You're using IE? What version? Can you paste the URL for the "ad" in here?

I've filed a support ticket to have it removed if it is indeed coming from us.

You were right, it was a browser issue. I switched to G-Chrome at work, no pop-ups now. Thanks for your help. If you still want the URL I can send it tomorrow at work (I use Mac at home and don't have to worry about these silly PC issues ;-) ).

Interesting. My in laws went to Kenya and Nigeria last year but they never mentioned the unavailability of candy bars. Bummer for you! When are you getting back? Hopefully before the Masters! ;) P.S. Go MSU!!! ;)

LOL ... and I was only giving you crap because of your facebook declaration!

BTW, I have the Izzo's going to the elite eight ... and then losing to eventual champion Iowa State.  (I don't know anything about basketball this year except that UCLA looked damn good in the Pac-12 tournament)

Yeah we've established that it's Internet Explorer. I think it has something to do with the ads for Milky Way at the top right.

If you do have an issue with recurring/suspicious ads, or "adware", you can always uninstall IE which will default you to the version that was packaged with your Operating System. Go to Control Panel > Programs and Features > View Installed Updates. Right-click on IE and uninstall. The next time that you open IE, you should be prompted to update your version of IE or you can simply manually install the update by going to Microsoft's download center. Just an FYI. This is usually the easiest way to remove unwanted ads, addons, toolbars, etc. without downloading additional third-party anti-adware/malware software.

I use Google Chrome and get this too. I disabled my pop up blocker. Other than having to close it out, it really doesn't bother me.

    • Can you elaborate on this?  There's a par-4 hole at the course I've played the most (was my home course for over a decade, now 50 miles away but I still go and play there) whose green is below the fairway and I realized recently it's one of three holes on the course I've never made birdie, despite that I often have a short iron into the green for my second shot.  It isn't even that I haven't made birdie, but I realize I often don't hit the green.  My typical play of the hole is to have a near-GIR and sometimes I get up and down, but not as often as I would if I were trying to 2-putt.
