Go Back To School With A Grant"</p> <p>=:-O</p> <p>Think it has anything to do with the fact I'm cruising the net from the office, instead of working?! LOL. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/aaaargh-the-levi-ad-on-google-ads-is-driving-me-crazy#post-303284 Thu, 24 Feb 2011 17:20:11 +0000 medusa 303284@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I came here to say what Katja already said - Adblock Plus. It makes the web tolerable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/aaaargh-the-levi-ad-on-google-ads-is-driving-me-crazy#post-303233 Thu, 24 Feb 2011 15:09:31 +0000 Isabel 303233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deb - I guess I am not paranoid alone !!! I also feel a bit unsettled. I don't know why. I suppose I feel as if "the cloud" is collecting data on me to try and brainwash me. Mostly, I think, maybe I am afraid that I will just give in to temptation and buy the Orajel. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/aaaargh-the-levi-ad-on-google-ads-is-driving-me-crazy#post-303206 Thu, 24 Feb 2011 14:23:07 +0000 Queen Mum 303206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>yes Deb... the add definitely is tailored to the topic.<br /> in fact, currently, there is an ad for orajel ;-)<br /> I'll have to look for the Levi's ad </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/aaaargh-the-levi-ad-on-google-ads-is-driving-me-crazy#post-303128 Thu, 24 Feb 2011 06:21:33 +0000 Deb 303128@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do not have the flashing advert either, it would make me nuts.</p> <p>Speaking of ads on the forum - has anyone else noticed that many of them are tailored to the topic? Examples: If someone writes about a wedding gown, for example, within minutes ads geared to brides appear; when discussing dogs, ads for dog-based products come up.</p> <p>Very high tech, but somewhat unsettling. Feels like Big Brother has his eye on us. :-/ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/aaaargh-the-levi-ad-on-google-ads-is-driving-me-crazy#post-303080 Thu, 24 Feb 2011 04:06:22 +0000 Isabel 303080@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No, but I am being haunted by a sterling silver and emerald ring for $ 1,800 that I admired the other day, but have no intention of buying. Though I am feeling hypnotized !</p> <p>Katja !!! I have fallen on my knees in gratitude to you ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/aaaargh-the-levi-ad-on-google-ads-is-driving-me-crazy#post-302992 Wed, 23 Feb 2011 23:57:41 +0000 Michelle 302992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No doubt about it, blindness has perks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/aaaargh-the-levi-ad-on-google-ads-is-driving-me-crazy#post-302985 Wed, 23 Feb 2011 23:41:23 +0000 Katja 302985@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Firefox and <a href="http://adblockplus.org/en/">Adblock Plus</a>.

I remember when I was in Australia the Google ads on here were Australian based. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/aaaargh-the-levi-ad-on-google-ads-is-driving-me-crazy#post-302830 Wed, 23 Feb 2011 20:22:33 +0000 RoseandJoan 302830@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Has anyone else seen it flashing like crazy in the corner of the forum? it's like subliminal advertising (is there a message in amongst the flashing). I hope it vanishes when I next click refresh!</p> <p>Google, please do NOT do this to us. </p>
