Ad just happened on Edge browser. Does "#google_vignette" on the URLs provide any clues?

Are you definitely logged in when these ads appear?

Google auto ads Ads are not enabled on these forums do you have the same problem with WWF or MWF. All 3 are set with the same advertising schedule so you would think the problem should be the same for you on all 3 forums

If I just open the forum without logging in, I also will get an add at the top of the screen as well as one in a thread and one below the bottom Navigation bar, as will anyone who isn't logged in will get and also new members who haven't posted.

I just used tapatalk without being logged in and got a full screen ad + 2 1/3 screen ads as I scrolled through a post. Tapatalk said I was logged in, so logged out and ads disappeared. I could not find how to log in to this forum so I reckon I was logged into tapatalk and not the forums. but no idea if this is right or not.

Let me know how you get on.

Steven has been notified, may take a while before he can get to this (he's a busy man, overworked and underpaid but very appreciated)

Will let you know what's up... hopefully.

Yes, I'm always logged in when these appear. I rarely manually logout, and I'm rarely required to login (latest login was when I tested on Edge this morning, can't recall the previous time, was ages ago)
As mentioned earlier, these ads are only on RF (not on WWF. (I don't use MWF))
I've never used Tapatalk. Just web browsers

I've also noticed that only on RF, I get ads scrolling up from the bottom. Then sometimes, just a few seconds later, I get a fullscreen ad

Will wait for sreven but I can't fid a problem. Have you cleared your cache & had your security program do a scam for viruses, malware, etc?

Well that's different. I'm on mobile using tapatalk & hate it. Will shut my end down now and go have a Bex & a good lay down.

One more . Thinking about cache, cookies, etc, I installed Firefox freshly on my mobile (never had it on this device before). Went to RF, waited a while, and got a full screen ad.

Those ads I mentioned which scroll up from the bottom on Windows 10 - they scroll down from the top on both Chrome and Firefox on mobile handset

[r3nov8or]

Ok, one more then...

I've never been much of a html coder, but this code for adsbygoogle only appears within RF pages. Not WWF nor MWF pages

Here's a partial screen shot of our Google AdSense Advertising setup. Showing the box checked for: No Google AdSense Ads

Is anyone else having this problem when you are logged in?

If so please let me know in this thread.

Thank you for any feedback.

That's just fine, but I got a full screen ad when I click on the image And here's a screen shot of an ad while I'm typing... (on Windows 10, Chrome)

That doesn't look like a Google Ad.

All Google ads should have a Google Ads label... as per the screen capture below:

Me thinks the problem could be at your end. No idea why or what but will wait to see what Steven says unless anyone else has any ideas.

[Neil]

This just reminded me that.

I had a man many years ago complaining that he kept getting ads on WWF for channels/sites and was disgusted that this was what we were pushing and what would happen if his granddaughter happened to see them. Had to explained to him that it was his searched and visited places that were generating those ads. To his immense embarrassment he discovered a tracking app hidden away on his computer which his security hadn't pick up.

Not saying this is what your problem is just remembering a very old and somewhat sad incident in the early days of predictive ads or whatever they were back then.

You mean like this one? Appears when hovering over the "i" (information) icon. Also note the URL at the bottom (appeared while hovering)
