If you're using IE as your browser then you need to go into tools, optins and uncheck play animations. Better still use Firefox as your browser, that gets rid of the lot.

There was a thread giving ideas about how to get rid of them on here yesterday. I'll see if I can find it and nudge it up for you. It's titled 'Bingo'. Kath. x

Can anyone tell me how to get rid of the annoying adverts that appear while I am on this site? I have never had them before but have recently installed a McAfee security trial and although it is set to filter them out, I am still getting them. Any ideas???? Jill UPDATE 28/11/06 Thanks for the replies. Tried them both (except the firefox) but they have not worked. It is not pop ups I am having problems with but the adverts within the pages. I keep getting a photo of a really sad looking dog and I just cant stay on the site when it is there. Any more suggestions????? I will contact genes and see what they say. Thanks Jill
