Or.... perhaps some OTHER kind of disease if met in real life.....Maybe I'm just naive, but I have no idea what that ad is about. It does look like a sure way to get a computer disease though.
Just install adblockplus. You won't see that kind of thing anymore.
The only time I ever see ads like that on this forum is if I am not logged in. The fact that you posted on the forum means you logged in...you shouldn't see those ads. I see exactly 3 ads...two banner ads at the top, one at the bottom. That's it. And the very top banner is specifically rocketry related...nothing wrong with that. The other two banners are small and unobtrusive.
No adblock needed.

Thanks! Installed and works great! Just sorry it has come to that.
For some reason, all of my ads went away too, but I didn't install anything. Weird.
FC, That seems to be the case with me. When I see people complaining about ads I wonder what they are talking about.The only time I ever see ads like that on this forum is if I am not logged in.

FC , then you must have something else blocking ads, the signed in deal don't work like you describe, at least for me anyway. Once I installed adblock+, everything gone.
I see complaints about ads all the time and I still don't know what the problem is.
I added Ad Block Plus after the issues arose here and it was recommended.
It's had a big beneficial effect elsewhere. Sometimes ABP tells me, when I go to other sites, that it is blocking over 10 ads, I think maybe a few went past 20 ads blocked! And those are pages that often load pretty slow to begin with…. the ads would make them load even worse.
So my web surfing is better due to ABP minimizing how many ads try to load in most of the sites I go to, so the pages load quicker.
FWIW , ABP shows 5 ads blocked in this thread page..

You should install Complaint Blocker Plus.
