Verify pop ups???

Why am I all of a sudden getting verify pop ups when I search or open another tab on Bonanza?

I have had pop up blockers and security settings to prevent invasive tracking for many years.

Does anyone else have this issue. I use Firefox.

Occasionally MSN won’t open tabs for me because they are trying to track what I do. But it usually goes back to normal.

Perhaps what Tom mentioned but I personally have never liked the NAGWARE (which is from Bonz) where you get the lower part of the screen with the popover " NEW TO BONANZA ~ Sign UP blah blah blah" if you are just a visitor and not signed in. You then have to X out of it but will show up again and again.

Frankly I think that irritates new shoppers and can WE as sellers afford to turn away a potential sale because of this. Let them look without nagging about it. You wont see it if you are a member and are signed in.
I just wish they would get rid of it but what they will do is get rid of this post due to their heavy censorship. Too bad because this is a constructive comment and they wont listen to their members.

Yeah, I don’t like the nagware that shows up so many sites. [URL removed] me, let us email you updates, etc. My security settings are pretty restrictive and I clear all cookies when I shut down my PC so sites like Netflix sends me emails saying hey this pc signed in to your account, if its not you …

I agree with Atomicdiner I think these popups are a pain and will drive shoppers away. Can’t see where they will do any good. Just another reason why sales are so slow here.

The popup issue is probably tied to your browser (possibly malware and/or viruses) and not Bonanza’s website. Three things to try and narrow down the [URL removed]

1. Try other websites to see if popups continue and
2. Try other browsers and
3. Try using a different computer (hopefully one that is “clean”).

I don’t think I explained clearly what I am getting. It is those Verify your not a bot popups that you have to pick all the cars or storefronts or whatever before being allowed to continue to the site or checkout. Captha I think they call it. I see them on secure sites when signing up or signing in.

protected by ReCAPTCHA is what shows in the lower right corner and when I click on it, it takes me to Google Privacy & Terms page.

So far just here, not other sites for the ReCAPTCHA verify stuff. Some other sites don’t like my popup blocker.Must be my restrictive settings don’t allow them to snoop on everywhere I go and everything I do so some are throwing up roadblocks.

It’s my restrictive privacy settings in Firefox. thanks for the comments and suggestions

if you have recently downloaded an app that app May have issues or is conflicting with another app somehow.
Try clearing all of your cookies and rebooting what ever device you are using
If you are using an apple device the clearing and rebooting most likely will do the trick

I have popup blocker, but I can put in websites that I visit often to keep the blocker from causing issues, Bonanza being one of those sites. Can you do this with the blocker you use? It might save you a lot of irritation.

Well it’s a pain the reCaptcha here has blocked me from searching on Bonanza. Norton has checked my computer (over 2 hrs), found nothing, I’ve done everything support has said and nothing worked but that was all minor stuff, I have tried three different browsers, I have reset Internet Explorer, I have talked to my IP and a computer expert. All the experts says it’s a Bonanza problem. Support does NOTHING. I can’t shop here because no search. My concern is how many people has this happened too? Very few buyers here and this could be part of the problem. Bonanza seems to have a LOT of problems any more.
