Those Damn (Pornographic) Popups!

I have talked to several people and received emails from others that some sort of pornographic popups appear when you access South Dakota Watch.

Believe me, that is the last thing I want on this site. I have not put them here.

I know there are other annoying popups that my host, squarespace.com, inserts. I don't know if they are the culprit or if someone has hacked my site to add the pornographic popups.

As I am busy with work and then the Democratic Convention the rest of the week, it probably won't be until next week that I can get to the bottom of what's going on. I have contemplated moving this site to another host anyway, this might just expedite things.

Again, my apologies for the offensive popups. Perhaps you'll need to ratchet up your browser's popup filter to try and knock them down in the meantime.

If anyone has any other ideas on what to do, please send me an email.

I thought I was losing it when I saw "YouTube Porn". I was telling my husband about the site and we tried to find it again. I couldn't believe my eyes! More information than I ever wanted to see!

Ack! I was unlucky to get a pop up from "PornTube." My eyes will never be the same!

I upgraded my browser to Firefox 3.0... has a pretty good pop-up blocker and will warn you of harmful pop-ups.

The Green Card Lottery (wtf!?!?) popup is exciting. (usagc.org website) Imagine, some reader of SD Watch might actually be one of the lucky 50,000 to win.

You have the most unusual popups, Todd. It's a definite challenge to come here.
