The message won't let me do anthing while it's on the screen. I can't change page or to another title. All I get is the arrow pointer with an egg timer, it does not matter how long I wait it wont't clear unless I click the cross. I have got a Firewall. Sue.

Try ignoring it. Don't click it off, but just click back onto the page you want to view. That will conceal the window, and it might not pop up again. Then just close that window when you close GC. If you keep closing it, it will just pop up again. I found that on another site, I ended up with about six different adverts, but they only came up once each, whereas when I was closing them as soon as they appeared they just kept coming up again - and again - and again.

This message is getting right up my nose, everytime I click on a new topic or change page in GC I'm getting it pop up again. Sorry to moan, but how many times to I need to tell it I don't want to download! It's just a shame it won't listen to me shouting at it!!!!! Sam

You are best setting a firewall as it prevents the virus going around at the minute, you can also set your privacy settings higher this will block some ads

Do you have a firewall with an ad blocker. I have and don't get any ads at all. Margaret

It seems to only appear when i'm on G.C. It became SO annoying this afternoon I gave up - i've just come back and the d...n thing is constant. Please how do we shift it!! Sue.

I am having the same problem! I had it constantly at one stage but it stopped after I emailed genesconnected about it--though this may have been a coincidence? I have just accessed the site to find the macromedia pop-up has come back! It is very annoying as it comes up every time I change the page, even though I keep deleting it or clicking on 'no'. Anyone got any advice?

I keep getting this pop up too. I think it might be something to do with the adverts at the top of the page. Michellle

Margaret This is what I think: If you have NOT asked for anything that pops up then just DELETE IT using the cross on the top right of the pop up advert. Vera Manchester
