Since the past couple of weeks, each time I load my forum and start browsing, I keep getting notifications to update java and adobe flash.  A few days ago the notification for adobe flash became so persistent that it wouldn't let me proceed and I had to update which came with 3 more unwanted programs which I later uninstalled.  I thought of asking because this only happens when I'm using my forum, not otherwise.  Is there a specific reason for it .... or what can be done to avoid it?

Hello SMF .. your feedback would be helpful as I'm sure these notifications have something to do with the forum b'coz i only get them there.

SMF, hi .... still waiting for your response.  Please check.  It's getting very hard for me to work on the forum with these notifications propping up after every 2 or 3 clicks.

OK, thanks.  I too thought probably from an ad.   I just hope it's not some kind of malware trying to make its way thru. 

Thanks again SMF.

Btw, SMF ...... a few minutes ago, I got that other notification too of "web forgery" which another user has complained about earlier.  Now I don't know what that is.  Obviously not an ad.
