Intrusive malware-like popups
Recently, upon accessing a site via a non HTTPS connection, I have had an intrusive malware-like pop up appear, 2 or 3 times now, saying that our TV equipment is oudated and needs to be upgraded, which is a crock, since it works fine. Cease these invasive pop ups immediately or we will be switching to Verizon. Especially if you reply with some automated BS and lock the topic.

It may not be Cox but like you hinted...malware.
Malwarebytes is a reputable, free program. Adblock Plus is also a good browser extension.

I searched 1 (800) 560-8131 and nothing Cox-related results. I'm not testing the URL.
Does UBlock allow you to right-click the pop-up to block?
