JetsetBkk Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 I mistakenly reset something in my Chrome browser, after Googling a problem that I had and did what I was told to do. Now I get all the ads! Help, please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I've heard good things about Brave, but a little wary of using it as I don't know if it'll use all the bookmarks, etc, that I currently have in Chrome. I suppose I'd better start Googling about it. (A little joke. Very little.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetsetBkk Posted September 11, 2022 Author Share Posted September 11, 2022 While waiting for some replies - thanks very much! - I installed AdBlocker because I was desperate to get rid of the d**n adverts, but I couldn't pay for it. I was going to give them $5 but I didn't receive the OTP on my phone (or an email) even though the number they showed was my number. But still it got installed and works great. Any reason why you guys prefer AdGuard? I've not heard of it until now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post worgeordie Posted September 11, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 11, 2022 Ublock origin is the best I have found , Adguard slows your PC down by about 50 % comparing both with a speed test. ublock origin FREE , Adguard have to buy. regards worgeordie 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetsetBkk Posted September 12, 2022 Author Share Posted September 12, 2022 (edited) I still haven't changed from Adblock on Chrome on my Windows 10 (busy sorting out my XP PC ) but I thought I'd tell you all about the "Adblock Browser" on my Android phone. It's brilliant! I can actually use the phone to post this message with NO, Zero, Zilch, ads getting in the way! In fact, I haven't seen any, let alone "getting in the way"!
