Does anybody else have problems with inappropriate ads? - Zachary - 04-27-2013 07:18 PM
So lately every time I'm on my computer, surfing the web, may it be Yahoo, Youtube, or even Facebook, it does not matter what website as long as I'm using either of my browsers Internet explorer or Firefox I keep getting ads with pretty much a naked girl with some like "Try me for free" on it.
Or, "Life's too short, try Asian women for free" or German. I'M A MINOR. Only 16, I wouldn't worry about it too much but it puts me in an awkward position with my parents when they walk by, or what not. It is basically porn ads, and no I have not been to any porn websites. Was just wondering What could have caused this, or if these ads are flooding everybody right now. So basically my question here is how do I get rid of the ads? I have tried downloading a different browser like Chrome, but its still there.

Since you are using firefox, install one Adblocker like Adblock Plus, it will remove all known adverts from websites

If you're using some sort of plugins in Firefox than yes the ads will appear in your browser. try to remove it.

I had the exact same problem, with the same ads and this is what I did:
Go to your internet settings
Click on extensions
And disable/delete something by the name 'Vaudix' it is a plug-in
It may also be down by another name, but it is a third party plug-in that enables these ads.
Then refresh your browser. And those ads are gone!
