Report Problems with Ads Here!

Was getting the same pop up message. I "paused" the ad blocker am using with Google Chrome just for this AK web site. That seems to have worked for now.
 
I’m also seeing a fairly obnoxious popup on AK recently that’s requesting that I turn off ad blocking software. This occurs when logged in as a subscribing member. It was my understanding that there were no ads when logged in as a subscriber, so I have to assume that this is in fact a glitch that AK will wish to address.

FYI.

Getting the pop-up on Microsoft Edge on my PC, but not on Safari on my iPhone.

I never use Safari on my Macbook, but just gave it a try just now and did not get the popup ad warning. Safari evidently has some basic ad blocking capabilities built in, but a 3rd party ad blocker is a required add in to have full fledged ad blocking capability.

Have been told by another user that Firefox and DuckDuckGo browsers are not generating the popup ad warning. Both of those browsers have ad blocking functionality turned on per the other user.

Google Chrome, which I use routinely, does have the Adblock extension installed so I can read our local subscription based newspaper without being spammed by ads. Had to "pause" Adblocker for audiokarma.org this morning to get the popup warning to stop.
 
I'm getting the popup, usually every other page. Firefox and Duck Duck Go.
Also, don't believe I even have an Adblocker - at least I can't find it.
VERY annoying to a subscriber!
 
We are having some security measures put in place on AK & VK. This may be why you have been seeing more pop ups. You guys know that once you change one thing, you have to go back and fix others. This along with an upgrade in software has changed a few things and we are working on it.
 
Recently I started getting full screen video ads taking over my desktop background and a smaller upper right. I have my browser set to block pop-ups. It eventually goes away after, but I bet it's loading a bunch of crap on to my computer.
Still getting the regular pop-up ads too.
