WTF is that chitika popup ?

[The Skipper]

Sorry but it bugs me and I don't like it, later.

[RocknRoll]

I'm with ya definitely annoying.

Well it's even worse, you go to click on general category or calendar and it brings you to adds as well. I don't need to be getting viruses by coming on this site and having weird shit popping up.

I didn't know it was ITS related. When I grabbed the 1st flight out to help a sick buddy in Florida it was on Allegiant Airlines. Those asswipes sold my info to every marketing company on the planet, so now I'm inundated(sp) with non-stop ads. I figured that's where it was coming from. ps Allegiant airlines is all fud up. I sat in an airport for hours because they didn't even have a plane there to fly me out. They rent them from other carriers when available.

Its ITS related.

Which means its not our probem.

Looks like it is part of google adsense so it may even be safe.

But I cant assure that.

It is holy annoying though LOL as it is blocking out half of what I am typing.

I am sure Gary will make it better. Be patient.

Just dont click anything that you dont know eactly where it goes.

I am thinking this site is not hacked.

Just chill people and wait for Gary.

 

Im not clicking anything.

Because im not clicing anything.

Chitika rolled out some new program. I will get it fixed immediately.

[LVGaryD]

Matter has been fixed. They rolled out some "Apps", which I just got rid of. Sorry for any inconvenience.

It was definitely safe, but a pain in the ass. I was in Arizona this morning, so I fixed it as soon as I got back here and online.

That's why you're the Big'un Gary. Good job!

Actually it was my fault to begin with. Chitika asked if I wanted some new apps for the site. I thought, "Why not?" Actually went to Arizona this morning, so had no idea what was going on, as I only looked t the site on my cell phone.

Shit happens.

And, getting bigger!

Hey everyone,

This comment is in regards to the "Chitika Virus" that has mistakenly been associated with Chitika, an online ad network.  Chitika ads are not in any way viruses, and we do not serve any sort of pop-up or pop-under ads. This includes our new offering of Apps - which again are not virus and are 100% safe to use on your site.

A third party has been using Chitika's name on a virus that they have created, which is not at all affiliated with us. The best way to differentiate whether or not the Chitika ad you are seeing is valid or not is to ask yourself these questions:

- Does the ad show a blue link in the upper right corner that says Chitika? If so, it is not a valid Chitika ad.
- Does the ad have a link on the bottom right corner that says “Opt Out”? If not, this is not a valid Chitika ad.
- Is the hover ad following you around the internet and not closing when prompted? If the ad is in the bottom right corner of your screen and does not close after you click the “x” it is not a Chitika ad.

We are currently working with the authorities to find out who may be behind this. To learn more about Chitika’s Privacy Policy, visit http://chitika.com/privacy. If you have any further questions, do not hesitate to contact us at support@chitika.com. 

Have a great day!

Sarah knows her Chitika! Thank you!

When I first saw these popup ads, I thought Gary had struck a deal with a new sponsor.

  Lockjaw knows his Chitika too!
