I know that a lot of pics get posted here from Photobucket, so I thought I would pass this along.
For a couple of weeks now, I have been experiencing strange and unwelcomed new tabs seemingly randomly popping up on my browser (Chrome). Each tab is for "Ali Express" or some other random advertiser. I ran all of the anti-malware and anti-virus scans that I could, but no luck. I did interweb searches on how to stop this stuff, to no avail. Then I figured out that visiting Photobucket was the culprit. Almost every time I go to Photobucket, I get a new advertisement tab popping up. Seems to be just a slimy way of generating revenue.
This is just an FYI for those of you who use Photobucket, and are getting unwanted tabs popping up. Maybe you'll save a few days trying to figure out why its happening. Rock on.
