If like me you find these adverts distracting, you can block them by editing the host file and adding this entery.
127.0.0.1 pagead2.googlesyndication.com
To open the host file to edit type in the run menu, C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC then double click host files and open with notepad.

Webmasters like me use google ads as a large source of our incomes, for many its their only or primary source, if you are going to do this please take the time to donate to sites that you like as often many webmasters have a donate feature. Please be aware that when doing this you are possibly taking important money off a universitiy student thats needs the money to pay off his/her university fees, or an "older" person (aka. Silver surfer) who uses the money earned as an extra income to pay for important things as is state pension isn't enough.
I am not trying to make anyone guilty here but I am simply trying to say, please think twice before doing this.0 -
