Huffpo pop-ups

On my Android using Google Chrome I get nasty pop-up windows visiting Huffington Post.
It's the only site I visit that does this.

Anyone else?

You might try resetting your Google advertising ID:

Settings -> Google -> Ads -> Reset advertising ID

That helped me with a similar problem. Might also want to clear the browser's temp files (cache, cookies, etc).
