So which bright spark has signed Pistonheads up for these new banner adverts?

It's the usual 'You are our 100,000 visitor!!!!, claim your free iPod/PS3/Laptop now!!!'

Not really in the Pistonheads spirit now is it.

I've never seen any adverts like that on PH

Next time it shows up could you grab us a screen cap?

We have some external advert networks serve some ads to our users (though a large amount of our ads are for other Haymarket brands (Whatcar, Autosport etc)) so it's possible it's us. But very unlikely

You may have some malware that's subverting your browsing though.

I get the same, and a little moving windows prompt box (or is trying to look like one), on a Mac!

Whatever agency sells your non house ad space needs to block them.

Calm down dears, they're only adverts. wink

Don't worry. I'll alert the ad Police come Monday AM. Though it may take a while for the change to be made.
