Adverts

[Caran]

I've been looking at shore cubicle as we are thinking of changing the bath for a shower. Already have a shower over the bath but we are finding it a bit difficult now getting out of the bath.
The point is I am being inundated by adverts from bathroom companies. They are on here and every site I go onto.
Is there anything I can do to stop this?

It's a bit annoying, Tony, but at least I'm not getting bombarded anymore.
It really was ridiculous, adverts were sliding in from the sides, coming up from the bottom and down from the top. I kid you not. Never seen anything like it before. At least I'm free of that.

Yes, it is a good think to have installed, mrs c.
They drive you mad else.

If you have the same thing that shallt not be named as I do, the one others have mentioned (;) ;)) then you can stop it from affecting the catch up TV. I don't have a problem with iPlayer but the More4 one wouldn't disable until I found the icon (took me ages and even posted on it!).

My icon for ABP is at the bottom right hand corner of my internet browser (like a little badge). If you can click on that it gives you an option to disable it for the site you are on.

I've just had another look at mine and managed to get Coronation Street playing (which was great - I didn't get that far before). I watched the first half, then as soon as the adverts started to come on, it stopped playing and the message 'AdBlocker Detected' came up.

I clicked on the little cog at the top right-hand corner and saw something about disabling the blocker but I'm reluctant to try it in case I don't manage to switch the blocker back on. Don't want to risk getting bombarded with ads again. It was so bad, they were coming onto the screen in all directions and I could hardly read what was behind them.
