Pop-up ads on certain sites (Chrome)

Post by fruitape »

Hey,

So I have been getting annoying pop-up adds on a couple of online streaming sites. I have tried a lot of things to stop them but they won't go away.
I have scanned for malware, looked at my extensions, looked at my filters etc. everything that is recommended but I still get those pesky pop-ups.
The sites I'm talking about are Thevideo.me and tv-links.eu and Promptfile.com

Is there anything else I can do or is this a bug? I'm not very IT savy

I found an example for Promptfile, nothing to do, the popup however is closed immediately, so it's not a big issue

Hi,

Sorry I didn't realize, It always happens when I click through a link from the site primewire.ag and then on the continue button.

I must be doing something wrong. I entered the codes one by one in the create your own filter section but I still get the pop-ups.
Am I supposed to add them together? Or add something else to them?
Like I said.. I'm not good at IT stuff hehe

As I said, only for the first 2 sites.

That's strange, I did do that. But there's still a pop-up.

When I go thorugh Primewire: https://www.primewire.ag/tv-2770976-The ... -episode-7
And press the link with thevideo.me and I press anywhere on the screen in thevideo.me I get a pop-up.
This is the link of the pop-up: http://newsoft2update.safesystemupgrade ... EfrWkw4-rs.

Although there are different pop-up's everytime. I don't know if I should mention but it opens up in a whole new window, not just a tab.

What filter lists are you using ? I tested using easylist and the filters above.
Be sure removing / disabling all other blocking extensions in chrome (keep only ABP)
