I get this pop-up from time to time and only when on cigargeeks.  Look familiar to anyone else?

You should hurry up and acquire the cigar habit. It's one of the major happiness's. And so much more lasting than love, so much less costly in emotional wear and tear.
Aldous Huxley

Maybe it's like becoming one with the cigar. You lose yourself in it; everything fades away: your worries, your problems, your thoughts. They fade into the smoke, and the cigar and you are at peace.

Never saw that before.  I wouldn't do it unless SenorPablo tells us of a site update.  There has been some malware running behind the scenes in the pop-up ads.  Once I blocked those, all sorts of problems stopped.

If its malware. try cleaning your pc with malware bytes.. its free and works great.

Pretty sure (99.9%) that it is malware.

It'S time for a nice clean up.

If you are going to DIY, using Malwarebytes or another soft, make sure you do the cleanup in SAFE MODE, (press F8 key at startup) as that ensures a much better, deeper cleaning.

I would recommend Malwarebytes.  Do not go through with the install it is suggesting.  Definitely nothing required by the site.
