Popup warnings

Post by Trent »

I started getting pop-up warnings on steelchickens the other day. No idea what it is trying to pop up. It seems like the only way to find out is to click on the "Allow" button and I'm not wanting to do that. Is anyone else getting pop-up warnings here on SC? It is giving me the warning on almost any page I open within the SC forum.

The default setting has a popup when you have a new message waiting to be opened. Try reading your messages and see if it still happens.

I use Firefox and updated my browser and ad-ons which stopped the problem. Your java library may be out of date.

The only time that happens is with a new message like Jason said. Other than that I have never gotten a popup here.

You could have some malware running on your machine if it is still happening. You might try Malwarebytes or Spyware search and destroy. Either one should find and kill it, and both are free to download.
