    Has anyone noticed how much advertising is on this website? The quilting or fabric ones I don't mind, but why is Battlefield 3 flashing at me all the time? Very distracting.

    I totally agree. I realize that the site is available only through advertising, but, some of it is really distracting.

    I have no problem ignoring them either. I just hope none of them carries bad things that might infect my computer.

    I don't have any - I use Mozilla Firefox and Ad-blocker Plus ( all free from the internet) Try upping your security settings on your browsers ?

    I don't get any pop ups, and I can ignore the rest. I appreciate the board being free so I don't mind the ads.

    I don't see any advertisements. I also use Ad Block Plus.

    The one thing I noticed in the past week is I was searching for some jeans on line. I found what I was looking for and ordered them. Now when I get on the QB there is an ad for jeans from the company I ordered from on the right side of my screen. What's up with that?

    I can ignore ads in order to keep this board free. Small "price" to pay.
