I purchased 3 things off eBay today. And at the bottom of each check out... It gave me a place to donate money to some animal group. Of course. I did all 3 times

It's the cookies. He's obviously has been doing research on it so that's why you are getting adds for the ford truck. Subliminal advertising is what i like to call it. You are probably seeing them on other sites too.

My ad is for Baby Magic baby lotion! wth???

Only kinda baby thing I've done on my puter was post on FB last week that I didn't like the movie This Is 40....because I don't consider pregnant at 40 a comedy, but rather a nightmare! "They" must be watching me

(<-- I couldn't find a paranoid emoticon, so that one will have to do

BHAHAHA!! That would certainly be a nightmare! No offense to older moms, but I could not imagine.

This is all too funny!!! I fully expect my DH to figure out my passcode and log on as me. He's just too inquisitive! LOL

yorkietalkjilly · 01-19-2013, 02:07 PM

Hmm. I have noticed a lot of my ads are food-related!

yorkietalkjilly · 03-25-2013, 10:25 AM

yup, me too. Adblocker is sweet! Especially if you don't wanna see those porn site ads.

You don't get any ads top or bottom on YT?

Nope, no ads whatsoever. I use the Firefox add-on. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/fir.../adblock-plus/

yorkietalkjilly · 03-25-2013, 11:36 AM

Oh, I use IE9 I think it is. That is the difference then. I did mute the bed-bug ad and really like most of the other ads, though, as they are mostly related to things I like. So I click on them quite a bit! Just don't need bed-bug ads. Ugh! Nasty-looking little buggers really big on the computer screen!

joeyyy2010 · 03-25-2013, 06:34 PM

I use chrome

Here's one for IE9 if you want, but sounds like you enjoy the ads.

Thank you. I was always worried one of those would slow my browser down a little and didn't ever get one before. Wouldn't you think that the extra ad blocker eats some bandwidth? I'd always read this and would rather see some ads that be one iota slower. I do mostly enjoy the ads as they are usually fairly closely tailored to my interests and I often click on them, which also nets YorkieTalk some $$$ each click. Still, if I see many more yucky ones like that disgusting flesh-colored bedbug ad, I might download this program! I bookmarked it so I can go there if I decide to use it. Thank you again.
