Removing ads! The google ads that appear at the top of each page really annoy me....is there a way of removing them??




Answers

 

I doubt they can be removed. But that Shedstore one with the six-fingered hand in it really gets my goat! What is the point of that?

I just try and ignore them, but they are still irritating,I know on the ebay site there is an option in your account to stop them, but unfortunately cant find that on here!

There are Pop-Up Blockers that will stop this. Ask Google for pop-up blocker and choose a free one to download. I had one a while ago but found it was blocking links to pages that I needed. It was too efficient. But a pop-up blocker will stop the ads.

Just remembered. The one I had was called Adblock. It's free

Thanks for the replies, yes I know the ads are are good source of revenue, and to be fair if i wanted gardening equipment I would probably try one of the links, just don`t want them in my face all the time. :-)

Andrea they must be a good source of humour if not income. Have you noted the house prices of properties which keep popping up. I did wonder if they had moved on in to the 22nd century and it had all passed me by. Examples shown cost £42,000,000 etc.

I haven't had that as, but I notice if I google things an ad comes up......

Yes I had been looking at property and as you say the ads come up relevant to what you are googling.
