Thanks, hang_loose, for bringing that back.
So sorry, Brook, for missing it.
Positive thoughts for your son and your family.

Zep, I don't know what I may be doing right or what you may be doing wrong.
I don't see any ads on fb, and I don't see any ads here either.

Due to some of the questionable "research" I occasionally engage in, this type of targeted advertising could prove embarrassing if someone else were to use my computer. lol So, that's why they're called "personal" computers!

You can stop those adds by installing Add Block Plus. It works and it is free. We have had it for a couple years. No adds on facebook or other sites.

Does AdBlockPlus need to be installed for each browser?
I use Explorer, Google Chrome, and some Firefox.
I see on their home page it says "Install for IE".
Will that one install work for all my different browsers
or will I need to do multiple installs?

If you still have adds pop ups and your computer is running slow this is the best cleaner you can find. This is a safe link added for the download. Malwarebytes Keep running this scanner. Then run a system clean up. Reboot and repeat till the scanner comes up clean. This will take that annoying McAfee the heck off too. I use avast and Ad-ware to keep clean too but the above will get in a clean parts most all other cleaners will not get. Cheers Don.

Must be those teen geeks who fix my laptop every now and again. Your suspicious looking avatar probably elicited the attention of the NSA, prompting them to install alpha-spyware on your pc, which in turn, keeps your browser clear. If I were you, I would immediately drop that laptop into a Goodwill donation box and buy a new one. Choose a less conspicuous avatar, something more effeminate, a basket full of kittens, perhaps. You're welcome, gw

I just have mine drop everything as soon as the browser is closed. Need to remember your passwords tho. An occasional cleaning is also involved, but not much.

You know, gw, that avatar was given to me against my will by Dwight.
And....
I have no recollection of that, Senator.

When I close mine it deletes all history and cookies. What do I need to do to fix this JKB? I mainly only know how to use Mac. I very seldom fire up the dinosaur.

Facebook didn't do much for me after I signed up months ago and I deactivated my account. Didn't really care for what some of my so called "friends" were posting during the presidential campaign either. Yesterday it suddenly pops up out of the blue and it's reactivated. Didn't even go to it, it just showed up on my screen.
Anybody else have this happen? If you never plan on using it again, then you could go with deleting it rather than deactivating it. They like to make it hard to find the delete button, but its there if need be. delete facebook
To Dam or not to dam  That isn't even a question

Thanks Beaver Boy. Not sure if that was what I actually did or not.
If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

John on a Mac, it's under the Firefox menu on the top Mac bar. Just click on preferences, and it's all there under the privacy settings. I also block all 3rd party cookies to keep advertisers from tracking.

Facebook = Internet unfortunately... I hate it and i want to deactivate my account but how is that possible? All my friends get in touch with me via Facebook. Most of the groups have no websites anymore. They use Facebook. If i don't have a Facebook, i will be away from the World.

At the end of the day, technology advances are a double edged sword.
Take smart phones for instance. Imagine conducting business without one....such speed of information.
But, now there's a record of everywhere you've been when you have your smart phone on you.
