The offending lines in the forum code are:
Code: Select all
<!-- Begin BidVertiser code -->
<SCRIPT data-cfasync="false" SRC="//bdv.bidvertiser.com/BidVertiser.dbm?pid=824774&bid=1967045" TYPE="text/javascript"></SCRIPT>
<!-- End BidVertiser code -->
The imported javascript could be changed at any time, and do different things depending upon browser, cookies, os, almost anything else.
If this continues, I will have to add a dummy entry into my hosts file.

Thanks, Bill. Editing my hosts file removes the ads completely. The file is smallest if you use 0.0.0.0 instead of 127.0.0.1 then shorten it to 0:
Code: Select all
127.0.0.1 localhost
0 bdv.bidvertiser.com
0 ...

Probably because you don't have JavaScript enabled ?
Bill & Tony's fix worked for me
