Fvd Popup

I just got assaulted by this new FVD popup on my edit buttons. Also it appers when I am NOT logged in to FAA and browsing as a csutomer!
I am a premium paying member. Um, this potentially is anti trust and can incur a loss of a sale for me. Anyone else agree? Also what do we do to protest FAA to eliminate this? Or do we just go elsewhere to another print house.

I bet you have a virus from somewhere else, not related to FAA. It's happened before.Someone will automatically think FAA is "assaulting" them with pop ups, comes here and fusses about it and then realizes the problem was on their end.

You have malware or an add on to your browser by recent software.

run maleware bytes. malware has becoming very intrusive and can be picked up from any site. and it does just what you show, it sends people to other stores. this site has no ads of any kind.

contacting the bbb is kind of pointless anyway, even if he ran ads like that, it's up to the site if they want to do that or not. but do run a malware check, they could be watching your keystrokes as well. (this was in response to the thread that was closed).

Wow. As if I would have known that. But whatis bizzare is that it is on my desktop and laptop. Hmm.
I will run Malwarebytes and see what happens. Thanks

Ignorance works better when you haven't already accused someone else of the wrongdoing.

TADA!

Ok here is exactly what it is....
Google Chrome Store Extension
FVD Downloader.

This is an extension to download video for Chrome. So that is why it was on my desktop and laptop.
I uninstalled it.
I apologize to anyone I may have offended. But how was I to know. Thank you to everyone for your input and guidance.
Sorry FAA. But please be aware thatthis could happen to you! ; )
