Technical Issue - MSE's Money Tips Pops Up With Every Click

Options
I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but for the last week or so, whenever I am entering comps from the forum, the "MSE's Money Tips" page (https://signup.moneysavingexpert.com/index.php) pops up whenever I click on a new page. As you can imagine, this is extraordinarily frustrating and despite all of my Googling efforts, cannot figure out why this is happening.

When the page pops up in a new tab, it says "Sorry - this email address is invalid" and within the signup box is "ENTER EMAIL ADDRESS", which is the MSE standard text.

Please, someone save me!!! I need this fixed!

    I am not at all 'technical' so it may be best to wait for someone more knowledgeable than me to post, but sometimes I have found that clearing cookies can helps with things like this.

    I am brave, I am bruised
    I am who I'm meant to be
    I'm not scared to be seen
    I make no apology
    THIS IS ME!


    When you talk down to others it says more about you than them.

    Thanks for the suggestion. I gave it a try, but it hasn't made a difference unfortunately.

    It is the only website it does this on though, which seems odd. I'm sure it happened years ago, but for the life of me can't remember if it self-resolved or I had to do something. I felt like maybe it is something to do with my LastPass account, but I turned off autofilling and it still happens. The search continues, but thanks for your suggestion!

    Have you tried logging into the forum using incognito/inprivate etc (depending on your browser) as that should disable Lastpass, cookies etc and if it stops it then it would almost certainly mean it is one of your settings.

    Can't really help but check none of your keyboard keys are stuck down, or try replacing the keyboard / mouse batteries?

    Doesn't seem like anyone else is having the same problem so it sounds like something local to your specific setup.

    Thanks for this - it doesn't happen in incognito mode, so at least that has narrowed down the problem. Now I just need to find a solution!

    Thanks to everyone for the help!
