I have my history set to clear automatically upon log off (so I don't have to worry about "anyone" finding WWU on my computer) and that helps. Also, I think some sites that are innocent generate weird ads sometimes, for example if you click on news items about celebrities you might get a ton of sketchy pop-ups.

Good luck, Chelms!

Chelms, I wasn't really looking at my ads before -- they don't interfere with what I come to WWU to do.  So I started looking and I'm getting military ads and "your ad here offers."  All directly related to my work since I google so much for work lol.

Bookmark WWU, I'd bet my last dollar if WWU is being googled to get too you're going to see "women" type ads.
