I dont believe OSO has anything to do with what pop ups in general come up. Thats all done by Google ads or some crap like that. I am so sick of being "marketed" to in every friggin facet of life. You visit some page looking for something like chain saws or who knows what and then ya notice sidebar ads for Stihl, Poulan, Brand xyz? on the rest of the sites you visit. Also tired of having to watch a commercial before half the damn vid clips out there.

Clean out your cookies and clear you cache. That might help.

Google sucks. I stay away from it as much as possible. I bought an apple and 100 percent of my computer frustrations went away.

The make of putor doesn't matter. I don't have any problems with my pc. But my son is an IT and takes care of our stuff. He keeps it clean and fast.

You are screwed now, Google Analytics has tagged you with need for info on T()yota so now you will see that ad everywhere that uses Google for pop ups.

95% of my business is driven by google advertising. But I only choose to advertise on their search page and their affiliate search pages as "pay-per-clicks) not by spam, NOT in the google email, pop ups, etc. I figure if I hate that type of advertising shoved in my face, I won't spend money shoving my ads in other peoples faces........

I would say that's a good approach. Yesterday when I started this thread, I wanted to call up every Toyota dealer I could find and curse the dog chit out of them. Obviously it's not their fault, but every time I see the word Toyota, I'm not thinking about their cars......

I have been fighting that same urge since Toyota entered NASCAR! :lolhit:
