Yes. When one pops up, there will be a V in the upper right corner. Click on it. Look around on the page that comes up for "disable ads," or something like that. Then follow the instructions for disabling.

Well that didn't work. I disabled the "Vibrant in Text Ads" and I still get the darned things after refreshing the GW page.

Thanks bbstx for the info, but it didn't work on my Mac. I have been using Safari browser. I searched and found a thread that was from August in the Kitchen forum and there was an app called weblock that was useful for some. It was $1.99. I'm off to bed tonight but will follow up tomorrow night.

Yeah, have everybody complain to the advertisers.

I use adblocker, very successfully. don't know if that would work on Apple products.

It does. My office desktop is an iMac with Mozilla/Firefox. Adblock works quite well.

Ok, got adblock plus for Firefox and now my hot links are GONE :)
When I down loaded adblock for Safari, I still have hot links in the text.

I use Chrome on an iMac and MacBook and adblock works great. It tells me it nabbed 8 on this page.

There's also adblock for safari, or if you use glimmerblocker (glimmerblocker.org) they say you can set it to block ads on iOS on your same wifi connection as well, although I've never tried since the setup is fiddly

I have seen those, when I click on them, nothing comes up. I just ignore them.

Not to be too negative, but if there are no ads there will most likely be no GW. Can't figure out why someone gets upset at a free service trying to stay free with such a quiet harmless method as advertising. The costs are real and have to come out of someone's pocket. Without pointing any finger at anyone in particular, it's sad that so many people want everything for nothing.

Woah Grubby_me way to read a lot into a simple question. Enduring was asking about pop ups not disabling all ads. She also contributes a lot to this free forum unlike some people whose name I didn't recognize and thought was a spammer.

Thanks for your comment though. It was a great addition to this free website.
