Pop-up ads
I understand it is necessary for this site to have pop-up ads to generate revenue. However, with increasing frequency when I visit this site I am bombarded with pop-up ads that are not blocked by IE like they have been in the past. I'm not talking about one or two pop-ups here, I'm talking about two or three each time I load a page. It's just too much. This is the only website I visit that I am having issues with this. Anyone else?

I'm not seeing this behavior with IE. Might be worth checking into Adware scan/removal software on your PC if you are getting 2-3 per page load. If that turns out not to be the problem, FT Premium (this removes all ads from FT) might be worth considering, see link for more info:

Thank you Tim. The ad issue was happening on my laptop at work but does not happen on my laptop at home. There is no adware/spyware on the laptop at work so I'm not sure what is causing the issue. Either way it doesn't matter anymore. I never realized there was a premium level of service and have now registered for that. Thanks for your help.
