WTF is up with fotki??!!!

Every time I try to access mine or someone else's album these horrible pop up ads for anti-spy software comes on. When I click "close" or "no" the program continues to run like it's scanning my disk drive or something.
I've already had problems with this type of crap before and it attacked my Internet Explorer which forced me to download Mozilla Firefox instead. I LOVE MOZILLA!! I breeze through net more easily and viruses seem non-existent.
How are you guys getting pass these damn spyware ads??

I thought it was something I was doing wrong. Those ads have been annoying me, too.

Yeah, those fudgers were redirecting me to some malware webpage! And that was when I could access it. It seems like someone has sent out some sort of malware to their system to redirect their members and guests. And I am not feeling that. It leaves you open to viruses if you aren't careful. So, I have stayed away until I hear something positive about it! I HATE hackers!

I wonder if I can make it where we can have our hair albums here. I'll look into that.

Okay, I thought it was just my laptop and pc doing this. Stupid adware.
I don't even go to people's fotkis at the moment because of that.

I have not yet experienced this...but hopefully it will be resolved. I have a virus software that includes internet security and blocks tons of stuff so maybe that is why I am not experiencing this.
