Safecount.net Survey advertising?

I was reading the Marriott forum & all of the sudden, the page was taken over by an advertisement for Safecount.net and the only way I could get out of it was to 1) Take the survey or 2) use the back button (which I did). It was a very invasive survey. I would recommend looking into it in case others experience this same problem.

I have a paid subscription to InsideFlyer (paper edition), so I'm eligible for ad-free FT, but as a TB member, I prefer to use the ad-based service that I imagine most users use.

Is this not happening to anyone else? Does anyone else find it annoying?

Are you running Firefox with Ad Blocker Plus? I suspect it will go away if you use those.

Nope...Internet Explorer with a pop-up blocker. (It's my work laptop - IBM/Lenovo T61).
