A question about : Ads
Is it just me or do there seem to be keyword pop up ads all over the forum tonight?
I do hope this is not going to continue as its going to really annoy me and i will stop using the forum if it continues.
Best answers:
- None at all here.
There should never ever be any on the forum, so I suspect you have acquired some adware/malware on your PC or device. That is the usual cause in these cases. - Yep think the kids been installing stuff again .
- Yes, that could well be the case.
- Lol it was the case, damn thing was a pain to remove.
Still her own lappy will be back up today so my comp should be ok. - I'm not sure how effective they are, but these programs block a huge number of malware-related domains. You need to manually update the free versions, but it should provide some protection:
SpywareBlaster: https://www.brightfort.com/spywareblaster.html
Spybot: https://www.safer-networking.org/
And, if you use Firefox or Chrome, you can install the AdBlock-Plus add-on and add the "malware domains" blocklist.
AdBlock Plus for Firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fir.../adblock-plus/
AdBlock Plus for Chrome: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/d...ibdccddilifddb
Malware domains blocklist: https://easylist-downloads.adblockpl...mains_full.txt
