    Hi lesmcdonald1947,

    Do you mean you are seeing a pop up ad when clicking on a link to imoneofthe3002020.wordpress.com on Facebook?

    It would also be great to know the following:

    • The exact URL of the page/post where the ad was shown.
    • The URL of the page that the ad takes you to (you should be able to right click on the browser and copy the link address without needing to click through to it).
    • If possible, please upload a screenshot of the ad to your Media Library.

    Let’s go from there…

    Hi there,

    I’m not getting that prompt to download a file when I visit your site. I suspect that something might have infected your browser or your computer and I recommend scanning your computer for malware infection.

    I suggest the following programs:

    AdwCleaner

    Yes, thank you. I did a Malewarebytes, Spybot and a C Cleaner immediately.
    Then I brought in Adaware and ran that.
    I saw a couple small pups.
    They were cleaned.
    Seems the pop-up comes on when I use my browser, as I detected it from other pageswhen in use.
    I use Firefox for intense links and OE for bouncing around quickly.
    Firefox use is slow for me because each of my links requires exact log-in info.
    I probably have it set that way.
    Looks like it’s on my end… thanks again
