Im not aware of this issue could you please provide me with some more details so I can get onto the hosting service.
Please provide me with is it an external popup or does it pop up inside the rochedalescan website ? details of the popup etc

It may be that you need to run an Anti-spyware checker on your computer as I have had this problem in the past I would recomend AVG Antispyware and Antivirus as a free cleaner.

Updating to phpbb3. So I am assuming it is being caused from all the updates.

VHF radio have you scanned for viruses and spyware ? thats one of the first things the hosts are going to ask.
I will let them know and see if they can offer any other advice.

Okay I have checked with the hosts and they have confirmed that it is a Virus/Spyware/Malware on your part possibly as freeforums do not support popup advertisments
The sites below offer good spyware and antivirus protection for free and that should get rid of the problems.
