adds.....adds everywhere
« on: 31-07-2012, 22:07:59 »
Recently i noticed.......that on sites i visit via google chrome. any site, including FH2, has some words marked either green and underlined. Or simply underlined.
When i hover my mouse over this, an add appears :/

Here's a screenshot, but not resized

Anyway to shut this down?

-i am fairly sure that if they took porn off the internet, there would only be one website left and it would be called bring back the porn "Perry cox, Scrubs.

*Gasps* The Horror!!

Firefox has some "apps" or what not that should block them, as that's what I'm running and don't have the problem.. I think it's called 'adblockplus'.

I dont see ads at all.

On this version of Chrome, I only have the app Collusion for Chrome installed.

Firefox + Adblock Plus + NoScript.  I've not even seen a Youtube video ad.

I heard ads are customized for the interests of the consumer these days ;D

Anyway, isn't there any kind of adblock program for chrome around ?

If you really don't find a solution seriously think about changing the browser to firefox. You don't even need adblock to prevent this kind of ads, but just get it and you are rid of all the evil ads on the internet, it's great.

Here a link for adblock plus if you are interested:

Theta, I use Chrome, but I don't see any ads, especially on the forum. Maybe you have caught some rogue add-on? To tell the truth, my Chrome is of Linux breed and with Adblock Plus installed (yeah, there is Chrome version of it).

In the worst case it is adware or simply malware, but it might be a browser plugin as well. Somtimes installed with freeware software like a toolbar or installed by fraudulent ads. Somebody makes money with you getting paid for all these ads he is showing you.

You should check your browser for addons or extensions causing this. It might be listed as ordinary software somewhere giving the chance to uninstall or disable.


Otherwise you can try to kill everything guns blazing using spybot and ad aware. Friendly fire possible.
