| What are you basing this on? Do you use Chrome? Reply • Back to Top |
| IE 9. If no one else is seeing this, I will check settings here. This is the only site I see signifcant issues with popups, 'course I'm here all the time.  Reply • Back to Top |

| Having no problem with Chrome, outside of gifs not loading right. I'd check your settings. Reply • Back to Top |
| I use chrome as well and do not experience such issues. Reply • Back to Top |
| I've seen it too. Random words will become links to popup ads. At first I thought I might have something but I've seen it on multiple computers and I run Norton and Malware Bytes on both so I'm pretty sure it's not me. Reply • Back to Top |

| Why on earth do you use IE? Reply • Back to Top |
| I go to lots .gov sites, mainly. Never had much of an issue w/ it. Reply • Back to Top |

| Man, we have to be real careful w/ what we load due to access issues. Everything affects everything else. Reply • Back to Top |

If all look legit, disable them all anyway, restart your browser and see if the hover ads are gone. Enable them one by one and restart/refresh to see which one is the culprit.
