    Yeah. Thought maybe it was just me. Dumped my cookies, etc., didn't help.
     

  3. Yup.... Someone probably figured out how to sneak onto the main board from the new O.T. site that allows ads. Bastiches!!!!

    If you mean the little video thingys down in the lower corner, yeah, I'm getting them. I started seeing them show up on other sites a few weeks ago as well.
     
  5. I’m getting them too. Almost want to call the SOB’s up and waste a bunch of their time, just need a burner phone!

    I'm getting them also, on the main board. Lower right hand mini video ads.

    It seems they are gone; I haven't gotten any in the last two logins.
     
  20. I use the Brave Browser and haven't noticed any ads at all on the HAMB. FWIW, that is sort of Brave's best trait in that it blocks a crap ton of ads. I use it primarily for ad-blocking on YouTube.

    As a disclaimer... I am a computer idiot. I had some ads show up but then they disappeared on their own.

    It's annoying AF!! I spend more time Xing out these incessant pop-up ads than reading content. I don't come here as often now because of them.
