Bombarded? Like ad headers above the threads you are reading?

Looks like you've got adware on your machine. Install the free version of this and run it.

Let me know if that works, otherwise, there are others to try too. Is your firewall on?

Dan you must have a virus or Trojan on your computer. I dislike popup ads and have no plans of ever having any connected with H-W.

malwarebytes is the best free scanning tool out there. Better than most paid programs.

I was having the same issue about a month ago. Go to your list of programs and check the recently added. I do not remember the name, but once I deleted the added program the problem was resolved. It's not a virus so you will not catch it by scanning. I had downloaded some software for photo editing and this was attached. I had the pop ups on this site only. Hope this works for you.

Do you know what  you downloaded that this was attached to? I think mine came from the go pro editing program. I didn't try the malware. Good to know it worked. I ran several tools trying to find the issue before I found the problem myself.

  I'm not  exactly sure witch program contained the bug, I down loaded a few different free photo editing programs, I deleted all but one U mark, that one works but its nothing special, cant get images to load, just lettering, all I need is a decent water mark for my pictures

I'm getting the something after downloading one of the apps below for the HW site. And they are on all sites now.

Examples
http://pixlr.com/editor/ is very easy to use
PhotoBucket.com is a site many people use which automatically resizes.
Batch Resize Photos Mac OSX
PicResize.com
Resize Photos Windows Vista
Windows XP Using the Image Resizer
Windows XP with MSPaint
