- browsing history, cache and cookies all deleted within Chrome. Cache cleared for Chrome from Application manager in tablet's settings. Still seeing ads rolling in from the right side every 10-15 seconds. Any other suggestions?

It should not be happening. I would recommend checking to make sure you don't have any malicious software or PUPS installed on your system. But I've also brought this thread to the attention of the bossman. :)

I am still getting them, too, after clearing all as you suggested and scanning for malware. It is, as the others have said, a small window on the bottom right of valueimpression popups.

Which is weird, because we're not using ValueImpression, nor do we have ads coded to appear for Gold Account members. Regardless, Keith is working hard to try and get to the bottom of this.

- I spent some time last night running scans and making sure I wasn't infected. I'm sure it's Subeta, as we are all seeing the same ads, and only here.

@ Dill there's no way it's a virus or malware unrelated to Subeta; it started happening at the same time on multiple computers and a phone with different operating systems, the only thing they have in common is this thing happening on Subeta.

I have a GA and got these videos yesterday and today! I am so glad I found this because I thought I had a virus or spam and I've checked both my computer and phone and virus scan was clear. I'm using Chrome which I think has a built in add block and they are still appearing as well. just got one not long ago. Will clear and see if it goes away

I use an adblocker on top of my GA so I don't see them, but I am still concerned about these ads possibly being malicious (malvertising). Would you happen to know if this is related to the huge increase in intrusive ads that non-GA members have been seeing for the past weeks?

This thread had gotten responses from Keith in mid-November but I do not think this issue was ever fixed based on complaints I have seen in the shoutbox: So many ads?

I don't mean to bother, I know staff is supremely busy, but any more information you can give on this would be super appreciated!

Yes. I was wondering about that I actually took a screenshot in case it was something I'd need to report later. It's been going on for the last couple of days for me.

I cleared my browser's cookies/cache and have not seen a valueimpressions ad since I did that. However, I feel like the site is giving different users issues for unknown reasons, so I wouldn't be suprised if this didn't work for everyone...

For example, people have been having issues with changing their pets using potions, but when I replicate the exact same scenario that gave someone trouble (active pet, same species, same potion) it works fine for me. There's also the fact that some users are seeing things centered while others aren't.

IDK...just some thoughts on the matter.

I cleared my browser and all, but this morning every page on subeta (5 views so far) i have gotten one of these video adverts at the bottom. I hope something can be done soon, especially since it's paid for so we don't get the adverts.

[edit] at 1.25 am 19th december I got another add on my comments page.

I've been getting these ads as well, on mobile. Have a GA with 3+ months left on it. Cleared my cache, ran malware and antivirus software, and I'm 100% clean. Only on Subeta is this happening. Pops up at the bottom of the screen on every single page that I go to on the site.

Okay, who has cleared their browser's cache and cookies (be sure it's "for all time" and not just "past two weeks" or whatever) and is continuing to see ValueImpression popups?

If you are after doing the cleanup I've suggested, please let me know, and tell me if you're seeing it on specific pages (if so, where), and what browser you are using.
