    Ads

    I was hoping the annoying ads would be gone after site update but no such luck. I've always had ads when first logging on and pop ups when on site but now they seem worse? A lot of China junk ads & some ebay items I've looked at. Perhaps it's something on my end?

      Thanks for the reply. I forgot to mention I'm using a win 7 PC in my shop (don't laugh). Attached is type of ad I get on home page. This PC has manuals & tech stuff on it. Only internet used with this PC is for CTN & parts vendors.
      I will try logging on with my win 10 computer and see what happens.

        Firefox Browser should be available for Win7. FYI Windows 10 was based on Win7 nor 8 or 8.1. Adblock Plus is be an available add-on for Firefox as is uBlock origin. The combination of the 3 should pretty much eliminate just about everything. The only exceptions will be ads sold directly by CTN.

          adblock works great, nothing but white curtains on either side of the forum. worked on 7,8 and 10.
          oh and i only use firefox unless some banking site requires IE.
          We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two.
          The medication helps though...

            IE is no longer included in win11 and IMHO Edge is a POS.
