Hey DS, the Connatix video ads are back. It's not a cookie or malware.

In lower right corner only when visiting SPS on PC. Then as you scroll down, it anchors underneath the post highlights on the right side of the page. It's not a cookie or malware. I've wiped all cookies, tried it in private browser mode, tried 4 different PC's and three different browsers. They're annoying as heck.

Would you mind taking a screenshot of the whole screen so I can pass it along.

Sure. I'm away from the office right now. It doesn't start showing the ads until you login. If you're logged out , you never see them. If that helps. I'll get you a screenshot when I get back to the office. I'm in IT. Thoroughly cleaned the PCs. Nothing there related to malware. And not seeing it when visiting any other websites.

Just got back to my office. These video ads have stopped now. Checked it on 4 different PCs and three different browsers. Main one we use is Brave. On3 must have caught it. The ad wouldn't come up unless you logged in. I've seen it here once before a few months back

Good deal. Bad ads will sometimes make it through. It's more frequent as you get closer to Christmas.
