That's a new one - never had that.
I just use AdBlocker, I have Firefox.
A Google search of "free ad blockers" will likely turn up others.

uBlock origin is what you need, go into settings, then add ons, add it. Its very easy

have not had that issue, Have you done a malware scan? Malware bytes has a free version.
I use mainly Opera for a browser (based out of Norway) but use FF, chrome, edge and others with Adblock plus.

Exactly why there’s more traffic on FABO and FBBO…..

Be careful! Last time I had a computer get messed up was from this site. The IT people at work were able to tell me where it started(here from some ad)) and urged me to install ADblock Plus. I did and haven't had an issue since.

I use the AdBlock Ad Blocker extension on my internet browser. It works good. thumbs

Sometimes lately there is a banner ad that goes across the top. It’s been easy to accidentally click into the site it’s for while using my iPad. I’m not sure if you can get an ad blocker on a tablet.


I want my fair share
