Got an ad on the site that appears on pages at random. I've noticed that it's been mentioned once or twice here already, but it's still around.
Image is here:

And it creates a popup to this page here:

This ad tried to open a popup to http://cdn.hyperpromote.com/showclk.html?bvgeocode=ZZ&bvlocationcode=1216269&bvtitle=History%27s%20Strongest%20Disciple%20Kenichi%20-%20ch%2071%20Page%2012%20|%20Batoto!

And the java created a floating frame with more ads.
Couldn't get a screenshot of the floating frame because it disappeared automatically,

I feel like we are getting as many bad adds as we get spambots recently. :(

With the "quality" the other ad-networks offer, it's no wonder that google AdSense has such a big market share.

Just looked through all the ads, but still can't find that gamigo/fiesta one.
Does it appear frequently or rarely?

Got the german version of this one after reading ~120 pages, it opened
hxxp://de.start.gamigo.com/lastchaos1/il02b/?pl=af&affiliateID=1157&pubID=25247&creativeID=23583&ce_cid=20jgG10jN9kIpj5R1y56Ij1u.imd000.

edit: just got the english-Frontpage one, it made my curser flicker again and opened
hxxp://www.aeriagames.com/playnow/gade/7?utm_source=glispacpl&utm_campaign=gade&utm_medium=banner&age_pubid=CD3848&age_cid=01_183733906_1613d91c-6d6d-4186-9025-aa8b68227274

I'd say they both are relatively rare,

Right now, my theory is that the ad comes from
VCL which passes to another network (and repeat to "another network" x number of times) and it's is picking that ad for you... >.<

Got a new one:
Spoiler

Opened
hxxp://www.myfantasticpark.de/?ref=avampde
in a new tab.
This was my first annoying ad today after ~16 chapters, so the ads don't really bother while reading atm.
i just don't want them to pile up if possible.

I can come to the homepage fine, but when I try to actually click into any manga chapters my browser security goes crazy and stops me. It tells me Batoto has been reported as an attack site and I shouldn't go further. The thing is, it wasn't earlier today.

What's going on? Is it an escalation of the 'annoying ads'?

Seems the ads are at it again, over large number of networks...

I saw a stupid bear on that ad. Appeared when I started reading Baby Steps ch158.
You have forfeited your right to existence ...
Your life is mine to take ...
And I shall take it right here, right now ...
Bwahahahaaa ...
Oops... Dang!
