Does anyone else get pop-ups when visiting links from Imageshack. I use Firefox and everytime I go through the link, when I close out this pop-up is there warning me about a security vulnerability to Mozilla Firefox and attempts to get me to download. It's not dangerous but it is very annoying and it only happens with Imageshack. I will not be going to any links via these guys again and I think anyone posting via them should give a warning about this.......unless nobody else has the problem!

Yes, I've had those popups from there as well and they somehow got past my blocker. If they want to become a legit image storage site they will have to get rid of this practise.


My life is like one big RAW file....way too much post processing needed.

Usually I only visit sites that use popup's, exit pops etc once.

What people don't realize that use imageshack is they can direct link the image to a thread without getting the pop ups.

I used imageshack to host the image:

IMAGE NOT FOUND
HTTP response: NOT FOUND | MIME changed to 'image/png'
