So long, Tom's

[mrmike_49]

Well, I've been using Tom's for many years now, but this is the end: MUCH too many very annoying pop-ups! And for whatever reason, Ad Block plus doesn't block them anymore (Windows 10 maybe)

Ublock Origin is the way to go for ad blocking.
No ads here nor anywhere else. Causes a few issues with eBay etc but you can always disable for that. I have done for here.

I use Firefox with AdBlock+ and NoScript, and I don't see ads.

If you've been using an ad blocker and still see ads, you might want to rule out a malware infection. Scan with MalwareBytes, and also with Roguekiller. The latter is available from Adlice Software, and is an executable that can be run in Safe Mode.

I use ABP and I dont see any ads. Try filter preferences and uncheck allow less intrusive ads. If you still get them you most likely have spyware on your PC try installing malwarebytes or reinstall windows.

i dont have any had or pop up on tom's so check your system with malwarebytes and do a full virus scan without network on .

Yeah you might want to scan your system. Firefox with Adblock Plus on all my computers and I haven't ever had a pop up here.

U Block works GREAT! disappeared ALL the pop ups!
for those who don't get pop ups, Win 10 or 7/8?? I never had pop ups until new laptop with Win 10

Firefox in all cases

No pop ups here with Windows 8 Pro, using Chrome, and I don't have any adblockers installed.

 

[meaga1n]

I would suggest a scan with ADWCleaner anyway as you may have adware or a dodgy extension. Ublock will block it but it may still be installed, best to try and remove it.

So Mike,
Does this mean you'll stay with Tom's?
