What's this?

I'm getting tons of popups on thesabre that stop me from reading

posts until I close out that tab (not just popup, I guess--actual new tabs open).

Is it just some kind of adware, or is thesabre allowing more aggressive advertising? It definitely happens here on every click to a post, but not on other sites (at least not nearly as much). Thanks in advance!
