There's a sticky on this too.

On this site are beginning to make me not want to
visit anymore. I know there is a need to make money, but these things are maddening.

No biggie, go to cnet.com/download and download Adblock Plus. Buh-bye, pop-ups!

If you browse on phone or tablet then download the garage talk app and view the site from there. Zero ads. Browsing from safari on a Mac has no pop ups or ads either.

I had to switch from Chrome Mobile to Firefox Mobile + Adblock add-in.

I need to have this so I can copy/paste it...

Get a Ad Blocker Plus. I've got it on my iPad and I've NEVER had a pop up.

No pop ups here either with Firefox and AdBlock Plus on a Mac. Haven't visited the site with a mobile device so I don't know about that.

There's a simple fix for it, read the sticky above this section and it will explain it to you.

AdBlock Plus was a great ad blocker in the past...but it's code has grown bloated, and they've "whitelisted" too many advertising agencies that pay them to allow their ads to slip through.

The "new kid on the block" ad blocker that much of in the informed of the IT world are talking about and using, and liking much better, is uBlock Origin.

I highly recommend it...less ads, a little less memory use (although I don't care about that but some people using computers with less than optimal RAM...like under 8 gigs...can benefit from that).
