Ads Galore (Solved!!)

What the what?

Hey Mods, Devs, whoever. I am signed in and getting ads. I have cleared the cache and rebooted.

 

Still getting ads.  And, oddly, I can't log off WC.

I've been getting adds, every now and then, I first thought my subscription was up, checked it, and I'm still good, so I can't figure it out. :|

I had the same problem. Not only with wincustomize but other sites as well. Do the ads refer to ads by google?
That is what I was getting!

I installed Adblock plus to fix the problem.

Hello,

I'll let support know again but it is the weekend right now .

Again you are forgiven. You will learn the older you get the more sticky notes you will need posted around the house.

That's like saying I made a mental note of all the important things to do today but I forgot what I did with the note.
