Anyone else get bombarded with the same Volvo ad? Everytime I click on a thread or go back I get the same Volvo ad over and over. I'm logged in so is there any way to stop it or at least slow it down?

Quit searching Volvo? Most pop ups are based on search history.

I am always looking for factory wood stocks!

It won’t stop till you purchase a Volvo. Then it knows to stop, since you already have one.

I probably do as much about as much "searching" the internet for various things and reasons as the average person and used to get my share of unsolicited ads and pop-ups but that all ceased after I installed a ad blocking app. A couple of the most popular (and both of which are free downloads) : Adblock PlusuBlock Origin

Made the mistake of clicking on a link for men's leather belts.

I would think that was it but I have never searched for a Volvo in my life. It's also the only ad I get here and this is the only place it pops up.

The only add I get also. Adblock doesn't stop it! I understand adds are needed to support the fire, but they shouldn't lock a screen until you react to them!
