i'm becoming less and less enamoured with Pistonheads. It seems I can't go on the website without accidentally clicking an Ad. They're even peppered inbetween the articles. And to add insult to injury, Amazon advertise what I have recently searched for - that one really ticks me off.

I dunno guys, it ain't like it used to be.

Where's Garlic...? frown

What device and browser are you using?

I'm on a PC using IE11 with Adblock Plus and ads don't exist. It's a bit painful if I view on the iPad though, to the extent that I don't bother.

I haven't done anything to the settings on mine - I don't even know how to access them.

That's the issue with the advertisement on here, they are too intrusive and repetitive, people just avoid them.

My computer has adblock, but I haven't on my phone yet.

I'm all ears for that.
