This ad is force loading about 50% of the time when I first navigate to the 3FC site. (http://www.totaly-beauty.com/?kw=diet&site=www.3fatchicks.com&cfid=6451&gclid=CL6ny-ahmZwCFRdGxwodUAOAeA) It redirects me to its page on its own and flashes up an 'are you sure you want to leave?' when I try to navigate away from it. It also seems to be running some kind of script that seriously slows my system down.
Just wanted to let you guys know -it is seriously more aggressive than the other ads. :)

This happened to me the other day too! When I went to pull-up the "new posts", what appeared to be a 3FC blog was actually an ad for acai drink + something else & when I exited, I was prompted a couple times if I wanted to leave the site. Come to think of it, our computer was indeed slowed down & other pop-ups appeared later on in the day.....
Here one that forced me to an ad site with popups....I had to restart my firefox to get back here. Before this it had a web site and "3 fat chicks" was part of the web address but I couldn't capture it.

They just took over my 'puter. :rolleyes: This one was for some type of Rachel Ray blog. They even tried to put up an live operator to help me because I wanted to leave the site. I had to shut it completely down to get rid of it.
Thanks for reporting this Ruth! :)
Sunshine that was the same one I was sent to. Thanks Ruth for reporting!

This happened to me too! I think it was a Rachel Ray thing and it kept asking me if i was sure I wanted to leave the site , I had to cut my computer completly off to get off of it and my computer has been so slow also.
