Don't you hate the new ads on our forum
« on: March 18, 2013, 06:26:51 am »
You are the 999,999th whatever and click here for something or other.  These have always annoyed me no end on other sites and now we have the pesky things on our own forum.  Am I the only one who gets annoyed by these things?

I have a computer tech, that just downloads all this stuff for me, on all computers, laptops.

all my bookmarks are synced, on all computers.

I only have to remember 1 password for everything.

No worries Marina.

I rarely get those ads thank goodness. They do drive me mad though.
