It's not coming from the board - it's coming from something else you have installed. Most common are things like New.Net and SaveNow - applications bundled with Kazaa/Morpheus/WinMX/BonziDemonSpawn and so on. Once you install one of the above, the "adware" is installed with it and will cause ads to appear at random times. Get a copy of Adaware with the latest sig file to help with the problem. :)
