    They probably have an image linked on their wall that sets it off

    I can tell you that it's definitely an ad as I don't see those. I can see it in my blocked scripts though, but just allowing it as a temp doesn't show anything new - it's trailing along for the ride with something else it seems. Here's it's listing in my blocked scripts:



    Going to temp allow some items to see who it's trailing with

    Must have been a rotating ad perhaps? It's no longer even in my list

    And today, I got a warning for Java/Agent-KU, when starting a new post and it told me "rotor.zalux" needed to revert back to an earlier version of Java (this was when it was searching for like threads to bring up the list when starting new thread)

    I do not see advertisements in any way as I have my Firefox quite customized; in fact, until I tell it what it can load, pages are basic HTML until I give it permissions lol
