Advertising problems

[Benfleet A1]

For some reasn my computer in riddled with advertising on just about every site I go on. It is driving nuts and slowing down my computer speed to a crawl. Any suggestions to how I can block all this junk. Shrimperzone and Tweeter are the two worst.

Al, the Zone is set up so we only carry our sponsor ads on the home page . Not sure what ads are slowing you down mate

Use malwarebytes to scan and get rid of any rubbish on your computer.

Download here

Use Chrome for the internet and install the adblock addin, it removes most of the genuine ads.

Sounds like you have malware on your computer mate. It's happened to me a few times.

I'd try a free tool like http://www.malwarebytes.org/ I've used it in the past and it'll get rid practically any malware on your computer.

you could also check toolbars that have been installed to your browser as some produce the sort of Ad overload you are experiencing. Try disabling all you toolbars and then re-enable each one individually until you find the problem toolbar and then uninstall it.
