I get this crap almost every day that I browse this forum. After looking at a few threads, I hit the back button and nothing happens. Then I look at the recent history list and it is full from top to botom with this address repeated over and over:

http://pubads.g.doubleclick.net/gampad

I don't know where this comes from, but it really PISSES ME OFF!!!!!:banghead:

I never get this BS on any other web site.

I have to close IE and re-open it to get back to the forum.

It is Google's display ad server, Doubleclick is a service related to Google AdWords. Running ads on this forum is what pays the bills to keep it running.

Main suggestion would be to not use IE as that is a horrible browser. I personally prefer Chrome, though with Firefox you can do the "ad-blocker" add on and it should prevent ads from displaying anytime you browse any site.
