    Mine are in Spanish! What the hell?

    Mine too! Ads for cereal in Spanish. I thought it was maybe because my last name is hispanic?? I don't remember providing my last name when I signed up, but that was AGES ago. (getting old)

    Guys/gals, if you have Chrome, just install AdBlock and the ads are gone! FYI, AdBlock is a popular content-filtering extension in Chrome, Firefox and Safari. Oh btw, I do not work for them, just giving you a free solution to have an ads-free browser.

    Anyone else getting the disgusting lap-band scar ad? It shows two distended bellies after lap band surgery with the idea that Dr. Feiz does the surgery with smaller incisions. "Get the Lap Band with Fewer Scars." Gross.

    I know that it says it's from what you browse and stuff online but I don't remember the last time I've been online to get pizza but that's still like the only ad that continuously shows up.

    Lol, I totally know what you mean. Five seconds after I look at jeans on oldnavy.com, MFP blasts me with tempting ads to buy the jeans.

    Even more disturbing is the rotting banana ad entitled something like "5 foods you should never eat." What have I done to deserve that??

    Lol... I get the rotting banana heaps too! :)

    But this thread answers a question that was rolling around my head too... Why I was seeing ads everywhere for comparies i'd recently googled... It was doing my head in - like some weird karmic advertising saying 'buy, buy, buy'... Now i know its just my browser cookies :D

    I keep getting one that plays an annoying tune, I have no idea what it's for as I click on a post or my homepage quickly to get rid of it. It's really annoying, anyone else get it?

    I also get a lot of 'improve your brain' ones :huh:

    The ads are based on what you've viewed online. You like pizza, it shows you pizza ads. :)

    This.

    Mine pops up with cute clothes and fitness ads =)

    I'm pretty sure proton therapy is related to Star Trek.

    I suppose my ads for business services are better than ones for pizza. At least I don't have a consuming urge to purchase Turbo Tax.
