It's not on my end. I had it on my iPad, iPhone and macbook.

I'll report it to the admins right away Meister. May be a bad ad.

Confirm you are not seeing it from any other site?

Only on macrumors, but on all my computers.
It comes unpredictably. Is no one else getting this?

I'm not seeing it, but I've reported it nonetheless.

Thanks for the PM heads up also.

The problem was a URL a member posted in that thread from your screenshot.

I've removed it.

Yep. as Sandbox General mentioned. Someone embedded an IMAGE url that ended up behind a password protection. So that web server asked for the login to allow you to view the image. The solution was just to remove the embedded image.

Ah, thanks for the clarification as to why this happened. I was in some other thread and thought it was odd.
