I am also a subscriber and have all ads turned off but this morning I got one on the front page. It didn't load properly, but there was an "ad by tribal fusion" line which was visible. Screenshot can be provided if necessary. I am on the fast server.

I am also a subscriber, and am also seeing ads on the front page despite having all ads turned off. The ad seems to be messing up the display, with the ad and sidebar both appearing far off the side of the screen to the right. The ad is not always by the same company, so it doesn't seem to be a problem with a specific company's ads.

Is each "fix" going to have to be addressed individually? As a subscriber using MAC/Safari with Ads turned off, advertisements have also began to appear for me. Thanks in advance. |

Did you see the ad on one of the new intro pages like animenewsnetwork.com/episode-review/ ? Because I just realized ads were showing up there and fixed that. Otherwise without knowing where you saw the ad I can't do a thing.

I'm getting these Nature's Harvest ads:
edit: Well, now the ad fits into the horizontal strip in the upper section and does not overlap, at least until you mouse-over, so I guess someone fixed it. I spoke too soon. The square overlapping version is back. Kinda random. |

Can you do something about these ads:
I tried to report the ads, but the pop-up menu to report the invasive ads wouldn't show at all. |

Is this still happening ?
If it does, please do this" 1 - Close the overlay 2 - Tell me what the "ads by" line says under it. |

I was looking at one of the encyclopedia pages when I was directed to
http://premiuminternetdownloader.net/o/f3/f559e2c511a8a8d7b58b2723822745cf/?subid=67b9b327c9c8fd7d129e93072fb51613&transaction_id=12c00132-b3f7-48d5-9e75-52363718d4b4&rand=547ba60fa1c27&source=mbs-f40&auto=y It was a page claiming that my Flash Player was out of date, and it tried to download "installation.exe".

Same thing happened to me, but not only on ANN but on another website and my Flash player is already up to date. |

I am finding two frequent trends in aggressive ads: 1 - It's usually that Ram ad (http://freeupload.mobi/image/download/b294bba5c582f0f53abee0ea29650cd4.png - happened today on a tab opened in the background, so zero chance of accidental mouse-over) 2 - Whenever/wherever they self-pop, the "Ad by [name] - report" line is usually hidden or overlapped, generally to the point it cannot be clicked. |

I'm on an iPad Air, and the current Funimation ad is quite frustrating. It resizes itself when I zoom in, potentially blocking a page's content. While thankfully it stays on the side, "stalker" ads that chase you around can be very frustrating on mobile devices.
