It was bearable before, but definitely not during Altador cup! Can anyone help me with this :)? I'm using google chrome by the way.

antiaircraft Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 There are two possibilities here: 1) Your computer may have been infected by malware that's messing with DNS requests. Unless you're seeing pop-ups and advertising pages showing up where they shouldn't be however, this is unlikely. 2) There's some particularly annoying Flash advertising going on. To get rid of this, you can follow our ad blocking guide, then follow these directions to clear out your Flash cache. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hi_caitlin09 Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I get a similar message all the time lately too. It's driving me mad! :@ It happens in Chrome and Firefox for me. Any ideas how to get rid of it in FF? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any ideas how to get rid of it in FF? If you look just a couple of posts up, this approach might be useful: There are two possibilities here: 1) Your computer may have been infected by malware that's messing with DNS requests. Unless you're seeing pop-ups and advertising pages showing up where they shouldn't be however, this is unlikely. 2) There's some particularly annoying Flash advertising going on.
