did you take a screen shot ? or do you remember the type of ads?
The banner codes on the site dont even allow pop-ups to be displayed. It has to be something on your pc.
EDIT : A lot of sites have 'exit popups' . So its possible you exited another site, came here and noticed the pop-up from that site.

I'd say either that or someone has some adware. Of course assuming Lib isn't lying to us when he says VGF doesn't have pop-ups. Which btw I've never gotten. Just the on-site ads up top.

Yeah... same thing I was going to mention. Nice to know my popup blocker's doing something productive.
