    I get the same or similar soft porn here on my PC's as well.It's not very appropriate when doing a demo or looking for parts with the customer looking at your PC.Then I look at it from the "boys club" point of view... whoo hoo yeah baby....Sorry I guess I'm just your normal run of the mill MSP....Honestly though there's a time an place for everything....

      I do not get any. Might be because I use Adblock Plus. Check your cookies and browser history. Many times banner ads, especially those from Yahoo and similar, are based on your browser/buying history.

        Adblock Plus is awesome, it stops all that crap appearing, it should be standard on all browsers, just like pop up blocker is, especially if you use facebook.

        It's not yet supported in Windows 10 edge, so i'm simply using IE 11 until it is supported.

        Totally free too

        Adblock Plus, the most popular ad blocker on Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Android and iOS. Block pop-ups and annoying ads on websites like Facebook and YouTube.

                  Me too... I find it strange....

                  Don't get me wrong I like looking at all the beautiful things of this world,but I truly believe we should be able to have choice which ones we look at, and not have a web-bot or advertisement/profiling software do that for us.

                    I'll give Slimslob advise a try.

                    I've downloaded Adlock for Andriod. I will see if the advertisements cease and desist. I feel I will need to disable Java-script to completely remove access to the html image code the java try's to overwrite with advert images.
