the one that pops up every now and then when you go somewhere on the site, and you press skip this ad.

Pop-ups just die, I don't pay attention to what they are. I don't recall any large ones.

It's not a popup really, occassionally when you click a link on the forums (maybe the site too) it just brings you to some advertisement instead of whatever link you clicked on.

I usually don't get them at all, but some times I get them every few seconds.
Heck, a couple times I've gotten them from pressing the Back button.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Hitting Back? Thats pretty Crazy, is that some special scripting to make pop-ups that way?

They're not pop-ups, they're preloaders. That's why it's weird when I get them on a page I've already loaded.
