... to think that a pop-up message that reads

Suddenly, I've been inundated with lots of advertising emails on my computer. Does anyone know how I can stop these, without losing my usual,useful stuff?

Oops - don't

I wonder if anyone has developed a blocker for irritating GN members? In particular those that dont contribute anything useful to the forum but just pop uo randomly with idiotic comments.

And never on Gransnet.

Ad-blockers should be used in secret.

That joke is as old as the hills. It is also boring.

I had one, but the wheel fell off.

Yes it is a Kindle Fire...

I don't get pop-ups on my Kindle. Is yours a Kindle Fire?

Just get Ad-blocker, though I found that it slowed my Chrome Book down. Then I discovered Ad-blocker+ which is expressly for Chrome Books. It is working very well.

I don't know how to do that on the Scandal** (**what husband calls my Kindle).

Help!

Have you got your pop up blocker on?

They just won't go quietly.

Was there an 'I just want you go away' option

I know grannyknot. They then ask you what sort of advert you would like to see, with the veiled threat that if you don't answer you might get even more junk.
Their questions just don't want to know that you wish they would stop posting any B****y adverts at all.

You can hear the ad-men asking one another "But why should anyone think our wonderfully artistic ad is intrusive? We must contact them again and ask them to explain . . ."
