advert in side panel

No thank goodness. All of the adverts have been removed by the tech man when he kindly set my new computer up, transferring everything from the old.

Nope, my add is for a care agency

It's easy to download an ad blocker and get rid of them. I can't stand getting adverts all over the place.

I use AdBlock which works for me, no ads or problems

Do you just google AdBlock and got from there Tresco and newist ?
It would be great not to get ads every time I log onto something.

go not got!

Yes that's what I did, it only took a couple of minutes to download it.

It depends on which browser you use. I've used Firefox and Chrome (Chrome is recommended by my software engineer SiL). In Chrome, look at the top right-hand corner and you'll find an icon with three horizontal lines. Click on that and go down to More Tools and then to extensions, then look for AdBlock Plus. It's similar in Firefox, I think.

Well that advert seems to have gone now - must have known I was complaining!

The ads often reflect your "browsing history" e.g. if you visit M and S online their products will haunt you on the Internet for weeks.

Yes! I 'visited' JD Williams on the strength of their having a coat featured in the lates Style thing on the main page of GN. I saw a jacket there that I liked, and looked at it several times. Now I can't get rid of the blessed thing!

Amphibia Sports? I can't even swim.
