probably it's some link(s) you used in your post (unfortunately it's the forum software in the middle)
if you use firefox you can use "submit an issue report" and then post the report link
or you can write about your issue without posting the complete link (remove http://, put some spaces in the middle)
or pm me

JEEZE LOUISE - I did as you said, using spaces for "dots" and I still get the msg.

Isn't this a plain-text type of text box??

This shouldn't happen.

All three are evil incarnate - the dark side of the force - satan worship - they need to be blocked.

:-)

(they are trying to lure the user to mackeeper or flashplayer-is-out-of-date scamming)

No, it's clean as a whistle.
I have to download from sites such as "Depositfiles" and "Uploaded."
These are ads that pop-up on those sites. Adblock generally does a good job blocking on these sites like "Turbobit" and so on.
But these recent links are trying to get around it.
I add filters whenever they appear, and thought I'd report the new attempts to ya'll directly instead of just using Adblock's "report an issue on this page."

I see, try to post also example links when you get those popups.

? I don't follow you / what you are saying.

Those are the links - sites.

Do you mean the hyper-links they contain for Mackeeper and so on?
