ActiveX on PPrune?

[BOAC]

I'm suddenly getting a lot of ActiveX prompts, mainly on R&N - something new with IB or just my browser throwing a wobbly?

Today none - Option 2 then.

Wonder if Tuesday's set of "Security patches" from MS changed anything?

That is usually a good source of warning messages suddenly appearing

Why would I get 213.48.96.23 flagging up on NoScript when I went through the new members 'create new thread' protocol?

Well.... I was already thinking that it might be an ad issue... a check on the ip address noted by Captain Speedbird...

There are 3 domains hosted on this IP address.

1. Jetpp.com
2. Monsterski.org
3. Topclasstraining.com

What came to my attention was the page that ip address resolves to if you put it into your browser address bar. A log-in page for, well look for yourself. Why would the pprune 'are you sure' login page for newbies (with no adverts) be cross referenced to flybe students login page by script? It only did it the one time, when creating a first new thread as a new user. I couldn't replicate it after that. I'm not suggesting anything sinister here, its probably marketing intelligence, but it did surprise me.
