I've been trying to get a review posted on dooyoo this evening but every time I access the page to post my review, a long, oblong pop up appears (Betfair Casino) and I can do nothing to get rid of it. It appears on the page seconds after I access the page I want but then when I try to click anywhere on the page, nothing happens.

Is it a bug within dooyoo, or is it a problem with my computer? The pop up doesn't appear on any other sites.

I uninstalled Norton yesterday as I had come to the end of my 12 months registration and can't afford to fork out 50 quid so installed AVG, Spybot and Zone Alarm. Has something got through?

I scanned with Spybot and two things came up (I know this has nothing to do with dooyoo but I'll tell you, anyway!) and one of the things said Microsoft Windows Security Centre-disabled. Trying to find out what that meant, I right clicked and it said Registry Change.

God knows what that is - does anyone else?

In the meantime, I can't even email dooyoo to tell them about the bug because the pop up appeared when I clicked on the 'report a bug' and I couldn't do anything!

It happens to me as well, but usually I Refresh and it goes away.

That one is frustrating me as well..was going to screenshot and post in guide forum, , as there is no obvious way to remove it - but no doubt Jared will pick up here...

Ladies and gentlemen, may I present Firefox, a quite wonderful browser.

And the Adblock Plus extension.

Thanks for that! The problem seems to have cleared for now and I'll take a look at that download later.... I'm still pondering over the apparent registry changes from the last downloading I did with Spybot etc! What a Face

It is a problem that has been raised on the guide forum a number of times but nothing has been done about it. It looks like Dooyoo are more interested in the filfthy lucre from the advertisers than the hassle it causes members.

Just hit F5 on the keyboard when you see it or use Firefox with the ad block plugin.

I had this problem before, refreshing the page always cleared it... it had to be a bug I agree. The problem hasnt persisted.
