    Yeah, but Windows 7 is no longer supported, which means no security updates, so you're leaving yourself wiiiiiide open to hackers and malware....

    Yes, it will work for every site. You have to get the ad block plugin specific to the web browser you use. If you use Chrome, then search for "Chrome ad block". If you use Firefox, then search for "Firefox ad block".

    I have a brand new computer (Dell) with Windows 10...not really crazy about it as I thought all sites would load faster. Not true! It took me two week to just figure out how to upload pictures to this site. Sometime you can't teach an old dog new tricks!!

    I get their newsletter; since I've dumped Centurylink and gone to another i-net server mine has changed dramatically - for the better. So it might be your server/time of day; when it's in the evening when the kids are home from school and parents are home from work mine used to slow down horridly. I'm So happy with the server I chose. Not a national one; just for my area and surrounding.
