You are probably correct Darren. I normally have a final look at West site before closing my browser. I then get the pop up. Today I tested it. Open West Site then immediately closed browser and got no pop up. So obviously I must be picking it up from another site and it waits until I close the browser before surfacing. However I am sure you would agree that it is best to ignore these pop ups if you do get them.
