'take a moment to visit our sponsor' popup

'take a moment to visit our sponsor' popup
i get this very annoying popup for 'cartoon you' popping up every time i click a post here.
doesnt happen on any other sites, just here - surely the majority of bikers aren't interested in cartoon pictures of themselves, and having to reg details & email address on a spam site.

is anyone else having this issue, or is it just something to do with my routing from uk?
i have used several antispyware / adware apps and my pc is clean as a whistle.

Do you know what company is being advertised? It may help the tech people pin it down.
