I know you have to make money from this site, but it's REALLY annoying, when on my phone. I click bottom buttons, active, I'm on etc. Get linked to a bloody advert, just happened 3 times! I try clicking right on edge, I must have fat fingers.

I'll just give up using it.

Hi seacliff. These ads are related to your browsing history as far as we can see, so it might be worth clearing your cache!

So other people don't get any ads?

Well, many of us seemed to be getting the flashing apple product ones, which did not seem to be related to browsing history. We couldn't all have been the millionth visitor or whatever it was either! I think they have gone now (peeks cautiously out from behind the sofa) so I hope that means that none of us were sucked into clicking on them.

Mine only show on my android phone, and some of those ads bear no relation to anything I've looked at. I hate accidentally clicking on them, as they then get money I suppose.
