Fanfiction.net pop up problems

[silvaofhope.livejournal.com]

I rarely use FF.net but someone recommended a story called "By the Water of Babylon". It's supposed to be a spin from the actual book written by Stephen Vincent but with a QAF twist. I just started reading it, but now when I go to the chapter I'm immediately transfered to a stupid page that's adverticing food! Usually I just refresh my screen and it goes away, but no luck with that this time.

Even when I go directly to the main FF.net page, I'm still moved towards some adverticement and even if I click to go back, it doesn't work. Am I right in assuming that there's some sort of problem with their pop ups? I mean, how are we supposed to read anything if every two seconds the page is being refreshed with another pop up....

Anyways, does anyone know where I can find this story? I don't remember the author, and I was just in chapter 1 to be honest, but the whole idea of the story caught my attention, so now I would like to read it.

Thanks,

Edit: Plenty of suggestions on how to solve this problem can be found in the comments. Thanks everyone :D!!!!!!!!

The pop ups are super annoying. But, you can turn them off.

Go to ff.net's main page, and move your cursor over "help" which is right under the "sign up" option in the top toolbar. A number of options will drop down when you roll your cursor over 'help,' and one of them is 'ad blocker.' Click that and it will take you to another page that asks you to 'click here' in order to block pop ups for a day. Click it, and then you're done. :) If you use the back button to get back to where you were, you'll need to refresh the page, but then you should be pop up free for a whole day.

Hope that helps! :)
