Forum URL: tay666.proboards27.comWhat is with the bravenet cookies that are popping up now because of the banner ads? I noticed it on my board today, so I came here, and am getting it here as well. It isn't caused by spyware on my computer as 1. I have already ran a scan on my system 2. It is only occuring on ProBoards. It isn't every ad that brings about a cookie, but enough of them to be very annoying.

Most advertising companies have those. |

They aren't harmful, they are just there to track which ads you have seen. Most advertising companies have those. Thanks Craig. I know. Which is why I have my browser set to allow sesion cookies, but I have it set to prompt me for cookies to be stored. Just seemed strange that all of a sudden some of the ads started causing the prompt when none ever had before. Seems to have gone now though. I have viewed a bunch of pages trying to see if it will happen. So far haven't seen any of the ads that were causing it. Maybe it was just a transitional thing while google did some tweeking. |

The bravenet ads are not the main ads on here, so it may be that you haven't been on when those certain ads appear. |
