Recently we've gotten an up-tick in the number of paying members reporting that they are seeing ads on our website even though they are logged in to our website. That is a problem because our website is designed so that paying members who are logged in should not see ads on our charting pages. So where are these ads coming from?
A strong possibility is that they are coming from a plug-in/extension that the user added to their browser at some point in the past. This morning I found a good article that explains exactly what is going on. Here is the link:

I recommend that everyone read that article and re-evaluate all browser plug-ins that you have installed in light of this new issue.
