Why do I get a pop up from YBW which i cant get rid off.

[Jcorstorphine]

As of today, I get an annoying "Do you want to open or save ?no_b=1 from beta.ybw-boats for sale.com?." when i click on Forum. No i do not want to open it, or save it and can't cancel it. Get it off my screen please or I will charge you rent at MDL rates.

What is this, why is it there, what is it for and how do I get rid of it.


PLEASE SORT THIS OUT YBW.

Did you click on the infected link posted by "me has a boat" in the lounge a couple of days ago?

If so, you'll need to disinfect your PC and YBW won't be able to help you ... ...

I'm quite glad I generally don't click on vague links posted by idiots. However, has the idiot who posted that link been banned? If not, why not?

Is this a virus spread by YBW.

WTF is that. I did not click on the lounge post so has the infection spread.

I didn't either, but as others have reported similar problems, that's a distinct possibility. We should all be cautious here ... ...

I have run a full scan using Comodo AV and Malwarebytes Anti Malware and no issues detected. WHY HAS YBW NOT POSTED ABOUT THIS ISSUE< IT IS JUST NOT GOOD ENOUGH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best vote with your feet then, and go use another sailing forum somewhere else.

I don't have the pop up but I don't remember seeing this warning before on this site - I'm using IE8.

Have you tried their new site for boat sales - maybe the problem lies there.

Run Firefox with the following addons:

noscript
WOT
Ad Block Plus

YBW will be just perfect.

Its still there on my computer but I have found that if you log in with www.pbo.co.uk/news it is clear so think it is a YBW sloppy software foul up.
