    Maybe its my settings, or maybe its something else, but if I click on the site adds they open in the same window.
    I find it annoying, because mostly I'm just curious about what is on offer, I then find CG has dissappeared.

    I'm sure on ,most other sites I visit if I click on adds they open in a new window?

          It is really annoying when some page you have visited follows you with adverts . I really do regret going on that sex toy site. Not nice when it pops up on my smart TV :snork:

                The ads that keep following me around are the ones for people with incontinence. Went there once to find adaptive clothing for my friend in the home and now... oh well, I guess I'll be prepared for when the dribble comes...
