Flight Rising Discussion

Same issue than the two above but the pop-up is in Finnish. Using Chrome and Windows 10.

[quote name="BizarreRice" date="2020-08-26 04:22:39" ] Since around the Flameforger's Fest Update, I've been getting this pop-up every time flight rising refreshes.

[/quote] OS: Windows 10 Browser: Chrome The fourth person who has gotten this pop-up! This pop-up used to show before, but when it was disabled, it went away. Now when I try to disable it, it always comes back. When it's disabled, no ads show up, it essentially eats them, which in return doesn't give money to the devs. [u]Going in Incognito-mode doesn't remove this.[/u] [img]https://i.postimg.cc/SNxmcdxF/AdReport.png[/img] When I inspected this thing, it looks like it blends itself into the site's coding. If you try to inspect a regular ad, it'll show itself as a separate entity. This is quite worrying. ----- Also something I just checked, pages with this following URL are infected: [code]https://www1.flightrising.com/[/code] ...whereas the old URL format used in Flight Rising isn't: [code]https://flightrising.com/[/code]

Somehow, I made it dissapear for a short while, but it's back again now and it's driving me absolutely [i]nuts[/i]. If someone can make a guide on how to get AdBlocker to block this thing, I'd appreciate it, since my pea-brain can't figure this out.

[/quote] I hadn't had this issue until about half an hour ago, but now it's everywhere on any www1. pages. I've seen the popup before ocasionally after rollover, but never to this extreme.

It seems many others have also been getting the popup for privacy policy or something. I have it too, and want to add that trying to get it to go away literally made my webpage crash on my phone. It's a very intensive and intrusive thing. [img]https://i.imgur.com/2PHR8TD.png[/img]

[b]UPDATE:[/b] I decided to make a custom forum signature piece based upon this so that the word can be spread. No-one needs to have their experience hindered by a potentially malicious advertisement.

You can put it on your forum signature fine, however, it must contain the following code - essentially linking to this forum post: [code][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/frd/2760032/68#post_44484461][img]https://i.postimg.cc/Zqdg4Csb/Cookies-AD-Siggy.png[/img][/url][/code] ----- So with the help of others, I'll compile a list of things that you can do to get rid of the cookies-ad. I know this isn't really a report-report, but it's something that'll help others' experience in this site. If you peeps find more ways, tell me. ----- [b][url=https://getadblock.com/]ADBLOCK[/url][/b] [b]NOTE: It's AdBlock, not AdBlocker/AdBlock Plus.[/b] [LIST] [*] Is found in Chrome as an add-on, also for other common browsers.

I also keep getting the cookies ad, I'll be following through with methods to get rid of it since it's literally popping up on every page and makes navigating very hard to do.

EDIT: I actually wanna update to say I checked through what exactly the other options part of the pop-up was, and it is! SUPER invasive! And every time it pops up it resets whatever you set it to, so I can set it to say that yeah I don't want it to use data from my device to identify me and my location on one page, but the next time I visit a different page or refresh it that resets and it starts tracking me again.
This ad seems super malicious, it needs taken care of.
