About the last two days I get a voice telling me "You've Won!" when I'm browsing around the site.

So what'd I win? Do I have to send cash to get it? :lol:

Got it too a minute ago while looking in the gallery, and was fu***ng loud while wearing earphones. Made me jump 3 feet out of my chair!
It was from a google ad at bottom page.

I never win anything.

got it again, then I followed the link which turned out to be some promotional junk ad.

Figures. Just a bunch of crap I can't use! No rotary phones or wind- up phonographs. Bah Humbug! :evil:

It shouldn't be playing any sound unless you are hovering over the ad but I did a Google search on that domain name and didn't like what I found so I blocked it.

Thanks for the report.

I'm still getting the audio. And I never hover over the Google ads. some of the Indian girls in the Punjab matchmaker ads are pretty hot though! :lol:

It is still there. I just got it.
Google ad at the bottom of the page, and I was not scrolled down that far. That means it was not a "hover over".

PS: got it again. Seems to be when I am in the Type 3 forum.

Hmmm, I did another block of the complete URL instead of just the domain name, maybe that will do it.

It says it supposed to be blocked in 30 minutes but it used to be within 24 hours so maybe it takes a while.

Maybe the ad is coming from a different URL.
It shows up with the words "You are the 100,000 person. Click Here"

If I get it again, I will see if I can get Firefox to "view source"

If it's not a flash banner, PM me the full link of the google ad link.

Right -click on it and do "copy link location" (Firefox) or something similar (IE or whatever) to get the link.
