Paula Cappa | 68 comments I think one of Goodread's "LinkedIn" pop ups ad contains a virus. I accessed the "Community" tab at top of the page and went into Groups and a pop up came on from Linked In that said I had won a prize and to click on the link to claim it. I didn't click on the link but x-ed it out but I found that this pop up jammed any further action on the page. I ran a scan and I think it cleaned it up on my computer but I suggest you look into this popup as either a virus or some kind of jamming device. Whoever is sponsoring this ad is not trustworthy. I object to all these ads I am now seeing on your pages. Especially if they are risky for a virus or jamming device. Are you scanning these ads for bugs?
