This is pissing me off...
Okay. So every time I click on anything an add pops up for some other website, and I have not been getting my recent mail (it says that I have new mail, but I can't find it) it this happening to anyone else?

Every time you click on anything? I find that very hard to believe. How that is connected to mail is beyond me.

Care to elaborate?

Yes everyone should do that and then the internet will collapse on itself since no sites can be funded anymore. If adblock % reaches over 40% then we will be forced to block all adblock users from accessing our sites.

I never said it was connected to my mail. It is 2 different problems that are still bothering the fuck out of me. My Paige says I have new mail and I can not look at it because it does not show it in my mail Paige. An EVERY time I click on something an add pops up.

See I have no problem with enabling adblock on sites I support but my problem is that most of these sites don't pay close attention to what the advertisers are actually serving up to visitors - I've had too many times now that I tried enabling adblock on an "XXX" site and because of the site owners not watching the advertisers I ended up getting everything from trojans, malware, and ransomware to my PC just crashing from so much garbage being thrown at me through the ads that no one gave a shit about.

I've already noticed in a thread here someone complaining about some of the ads trying to infect their PCs with viruses so that didn't help either.

So it's not just one side to put the blame on, those using adblock plus but it's also the site owners who need to be more responsible with what kind of advertisers they choose and need to keep constant watch on what exactly they're "advertising".
