I've been getting some pretty racy side bar ads from time to time. Anybody else?
The latest one is a picture of a woman and it says, "I cheat for men over 40." There is a link to a video.
If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

Excerpt from Robert Crais' "The Monkey's Raincoat:" "She took another microscopic bite of her sandwich, then pushed it away. Maybe she absorbed nutrients from her surroundings."

Now that's funny. The marketeers are getting good, they look at your cookies and offer you ads THEY think are of interest to you.....based upon recent searches! I was researching pressure washers earlier this week, been getting lots of ads for pressure washers. Be careful what you search for!

I'm thinking it's an age target thing. My cookies, history, browser, the whole nine yards are regularly cleared due to advice from the computer geek in the family. Besides I'm on a Ipad on loan from the wife's school, so no way I'd access anything riske on it.
The latest ads have nothing to do with my browsing history either: sunglasses and sleep number beds. I think your theory is bunk Sunil. LOL

First time PB sidebar ads appeared I asked my grandson computer geek to sanitize - never got another ad on PC or laptop. IIRC, he installed AdBlock... G/

All the ads are probably targeted if you open multiple browser windows like I do. I bought a Harry's razor in another window, and 3 days worth of Harry's ad bars showed up. Bought a stainless steel piano hinge, and then 4 days worth of Rockler Woodworking with a stainless steel hinge in the ad started.
I'm still trying to figure out the Rid-X connection with Tony.

I'm now seeing a range finder ad. No idea what that would have to do with my browsing history.

No doubt one of the 'marketeers' and cookie analysts think there is a relationship. Different minds think differently. Maybe it is called 'fishing'? So now you are the fish instead of the angler. Do you feel like biting or are you hook smart? LOL

Yep. They are probably the guests and spiders listed below the members online. Maybe even some cookie monsters.

We have marketers and cookie analysts here? I analyze cookies. I really like molassas cookies, but they have to be thin and barely soft. Not a fan of nuts in cookies either.

Holding a redear sunfish is like running with scissors.

That's what happens and how it works. The ad's you get are based on the internet habits you have, and what may be allowed. No ones else puter can put cookies into yours.

I don't visit those sites and like I said I have been instructed to "blow my cookies and clean my browser" by my tech on a regular basis and I do. Therefore there must be something else going on, although I don't doubt what you're saying is correct for the most part.
