I swear, I've got AdBlock turned on, so there's no possibility that I'm misclicking something. About every other time I click on a link on WP, another tab opens with some random website on it, usually advertising more internet crap than I'm comfortable with. It only happens on Wrong Planet, and I've tested it out on Firefox with AdBlock turned on there as well.

Is anyone else encountering this problem?

No, I sure haven't. Even though things are a bit slow to me, they're alright.

Nope, no problems like that. It sounds like a problem with your computer.

Sounds like your computer has an infection with adware / virus / malware.

Well, that's just lovely.

Now that I think about it, it only started happening after my sister used the computer yesterday. She got our past computers infected as well.

Okay, looks like I have some cleaning up to do.

You sure, do, Makayla. Best of luck to you on that front, and I mean that in a good way.
