Is it only me, or does everyone have the same problem when you click on a link for a picture stored on ImageBam, and then you can't use the BACK button because it locks you onto their fargin site?

yes, what i do is right click on the back arrow and WWoW will be fourth or fifth down the list and then i just click on that item and it returns to the post which sent me to imagebam.

My problem is that when you click on any image, 10 seconds later some video game ad shows up. I don't know why, but it has been going on for the better of over two weeks.

What's up with all of the Malware attached to every pic?

Have found it depends on the hosting site. But its there.

....because of all of the hotlinks to picture sites which are lousy with viruses.

There are problems with viruses on web-hosts, but unless someone wants to pony up money for us to host our own photos, then i guess we're all stuck with using whatever free web hosting sites are available.
It's funny that you've been here for 11 years, have contributed very little with your 120 posts, but want to criticize something that's free, and has kept you coming back for more for 11 years. I'm sure the countless pictures and images you've viewed over those 11 years, have gone largely unappreciated by you, since 120 divided by 11 is around 11 posts a year.
So that's a lot of times you didn't say "thank you" or things of that nature, for the work that other people put in for FREE.
So unless you want to become a capper and contribute, you should just say "Thank you" and that's it.

Why is there Malware attached to every pic?

I find it with mostly Imagebam but the rest are ok.

2 points: This is a free site with free videos and caps. Cant beat something thats free.

We tried doing a site where people could load caps at but it wasnt used much so we closed it. Thing you always got to worry about when you host stuff is the copyright issues.

It's the ad networks used by the imagehosts and filehosts, not any of the posters on here.

Ad and script blockers are your friend! I never visit an image or download host without one on.

Give one of these a try: uBlock Origin, NoScript, Adblock Plus, Ghostery or Disconnect.

For the last year or so Imagebam has been a nightmare for me. The pop-ups are so bad I can't even go there anymore. I don't know why I waited so long to use an ad blocker but thanks chris because I started using uBlock for FF & Adblock for int exp. What a difference!
