[Dixonary] OT: Ad Blocker
There's an online puzzle that I like. I forget when this started - maybe
a couple of months ago. Now when I start it up it tells me that it would load faster if I disabled my ad blocker. To the best of my knowledge, I don't *have* an ad blocker. I cannot imagine what it is that makes it think I have an ad blocker. If I did have one, presumably it would be blocking ads and I wouldn't, therefore, be seeing ads. I try to keep notes on the computer about things I do, like "installed new version of XYZ software on such and such a date. This is not 100% reliable, but having said that, I think I would have noted the installation of an ad blocker. Of course it is possible that I installed some update or some new software the installation of which took some time and which didn't require my undivided attention and so I went off to do something else. And it would have to have been the kind of installation that was happy to make choices on my behalf without asking or possibly giving me a chance to make my own decision but I was off doing the laundry at that particular moment in time. This is really just something odd, and a bit irritating. But I would like to know why it is happening. -- Guerri -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Dixonary" group.
