Mine does not do that. I don't know what you mean.

Are you using a tablet/smart phone? That is a possibility.

I have a popup blocker maybe that's why I don't see it. I have Adguard on Chrome. Not sure which is blocking popups.
I know Adguard cuts the big ad at the top out.

I will go in through a differeny browser ! And check to see if my pop up blocker is still on
I doubled checked that my pop up blocker is on and also added this forum. Tried Fire Fox,IE and Chrome and still get that Help Guide pop up.. Bet it only does it for non tech people like me lol. Oh well Guess I will live with it.. Thanks for trying to help

I haven't paid that much attention, but I think the same thing with me.
Up Date:
Cleared my browsing history and first had to log in. Then I got the pop up screen. In small letters in the middle of the screen it says "exit guide" selected and hit enter and it doesn't show up again until I again clear browsing history.
Up Date again:
I am looking at different subjects on the forum. It doesn't matter which one. I now get that pop up screen all the time.
Up Date again again:
This pop up won't stop. Going to reboot and see if something changes.
OK I'm back and the pop up window is constant now.

No I did that and it still the same. I used CCleaner. I'm going to try the browser cleaning tool on my PC. I have Windows 10.
Well I did that and still the pop up is there. Early this morning never got it.

Where is your browser cleaning tool located or is it a downloaded program ?
