Do you all keep getting a pop-up that says "get in the game, put your opinion in the spotlight"? It keeps sliding onto my screen from the left and no matter how many times I close it it comes right back when I load a new screen. I have pop-up blocker on but this one is immune to combat.

Maybe it's just me, but if you have any tips to share, please do so. You can only click "close" so many times before you start going crazy.

Nope, not an issue here.  It might just be some random thing CBS is doing at the moment to survey users or something of the sort.   But I haven't been getting anything. 

My best advice would be to go download spybot S&D and Adaware (update both) and then run scans just to make sure.

I have downloaded the Google Toolbar, which has a built in pop-up blocker. I also use Mozilla Firefox as my browser with adblock plus. The pop-up only happens the first time  visit the site, not repeatedly as you complain about. I also run Spy-bot and Ad-Aware regularly. Good luck.

Thanks guys. I have the (get out of the way you stupid pop-up) google toolbar with all the spybot/antivirus stuff possible. Maybe I'll try to change servers to Mozilla.

I think you mean browsers.  But yea.  I <3 firefox myself.  So, that's the way I'd tell you to go.  Plus it's so customizable that it's well awesome.  Sorry I sound like a 13-year old raving about this, but it's hard for me not to.

Kinda funny.  I have FF with no popup blockers whatsoever installed.  And I only rarely get anything from sportsline.  (I'll be the first to openly admit that there are times, but they're not excessive or annoying for me)...
