Re: remove commercial pop-ups
Do you have free web hosting?
The pop ups are probably being loaded by your website host. Many hosts do this in exchange for free hosting. If you are paying a fee for web hosting then there should no pop ups.
Re: remove commercial pop-ups
Thats the strange thing! Yes, I am paying 25 euros for 1 year for my hostingservice + domainname.
But at this time i cant see any popups when i visit my website. Hopefully it wil remain this way but to be shure, plz post a reply if you do experience commercial popups to be shure! :D

Re: remove commercial pop-ups
I get the popups. I think it may be your stats counter. It's not unusual for stats counters to cause advertising popups when you use their product for free.
I see the following in your source:
Code:
<!-- Begin Motigo Webstats counter code -->
<a id="mws4870809" href="http://webstats.motigo.com/">
<img width="80" height="15" border="0" alt="Free counter and web stats" src="http://m1.webstats.motigo.com/n80x15.gif?id=AEpSmQLF8EBAJOil8EsAZ78KuC2Q" /></a>
<script src="http://m1.webstats.motigo.com/c.js?id=4870809&lang=NL&i=3" type="text/javascript"></script>
<!-- End Motigo Webstats counter code -->
And I found this on their website:

Re: remove commercial pop-ups
Thanks, I am almost shure it wil be the solution.=D>
I will remove it :)
thanks to have a look at it
Re: remove commercial pop-ups
i have checked your site in firefox and internet explorer and i get no pop-ups at all - is that me being lucky or you being unlucky? who knows? you should maybe check your pc for spyware? i recommend malwarebytes and spybot search and destroy to clean your system of spyware and then run hijack this for deleting suspect items in your registry
i hope it helps - if that wasn't it, well the advice is free and may help others :)
Re: remove commercial pop-ups
I got a pop-up blocked in Firefox when I visited the page.
But Chris seems to have solved the puzzle. It's the free website counter.
I suggest Google Analytics. It's invisible and give you a lot more information.
Re: remove commercial pop-ups
ok i deleted the counter, do you guys get pop ups now?
Re: remove commercial pop-ups
no, but then I didn't get 'em before either...
Re: remove commercial pop-ups
I'm not getting any now....
