i keep getting a popup with the yellow error triangle showing at the top of the popup screen that freezes vuze. the error popup starts off as "http://n164adserv.com/ads?v=1&key=e64b6aae56d61a2fcc7cc88e15f" and just continues. there is no "x" to close out of the popup, and the bottom of the popup is below my screen. i can't move the popup up to see if there's anything at the bottom that would allow me to close it. i force vuze to quit and restart, and within a minute or two, the popup returns and freezes vuze again. i have uninstalled and reinstalled vuze, but the popup returns. once this happens, the only thing i can do is to force vuze to quit because the entire program is frozen. i have tried hitting the escape button when to popup appears, but it does not work, and i cannot seem to find any remedy to the problem. any assistance you can offer would be great. thanks!

The fix should work for Mac as well as Windows.
However, as you say, you can't run Vuze for long enough to disable it! A solution to this might be to go to use Finder to navigate to
/Users/<your user name>/Library/Application Support/Azureus/plugins/azpromo
and delete the file in there named
AdControl_2015.2.6.222549.jar
Then start Vuze and follow the instructions to disable the Promo View.

Happening the same thing to me since yesterday. I tried to unistall it and install it again severall times also. It seems that if I disconect my internet connection the popup does not appear. However as soon as I connect it and click on a random thin on Vuze it suddenly reappers and the application just freezes, having me to force quit it. Tried to do as all of you told but I am also on a mac and couldn't find those locations and files to erase them. There's no Azureus folder inside Application Support. Please someone find a way to detect how we can fix this on a mac?

BUT
