Peter T Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 Juat what I have been telling them Sid!. :mrgreen: If you do download it make sure it's from either their own site or through Firefox (if that's your browser) or Google Chrome, stay clear of the 'third party' sites as that's usually where the malware originates from. Done that now. Waits with baited breath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 If you are using firefox then all you need to do to get adblock plus 2.1.2 is go to the tools menu select get add ons and then search the mozzilla website for adblock and down load. It is the one I use (but disabled on this site so as not to upset GARY) What I like is the ability to enable or disable either on the whole website or just the page you are viewing. Just what I have been telling them Sid!. :mrgreen: Ahh so have you now disabled your ad blocker on this front news page of this site then Algy. Nice one I don't use firefox so none of this is relevant to me anyway but I've done similar in IE in the past to block annoying 'box in the face' popups and to leave the more genuine stuff but no idea how I did it now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evil Sid Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Ah but Dizz adblocker is not the same as popup blocker. You need to run both to stop ads AND pop up boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 I remembered now that I'm more awake Evils.... I've got my pop-up blocker running through the 'tools' option on IE (set to medium) which is why I get the yellow block warning bars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asperity Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 I just watched a video of the IOM TT, and the advert that popped up was for funerals. I wonder why :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
