    Precisely, it is impossible to uninstall. ................. as it says, some items will remain on your computer and cannot be removed. ( they want to keep watching you, criminal really )

    Have you got no script or ghostery or something similar installed?

    I had a few pics not show up today on Firefox mobile too.

    For some reason the swearing filter seems to stop the pictures showing, if you turn it off then they showed be displayed in their full glory. That said, I'm surprised the swearing filter hasn't turned tail and run away after the Cundy thread.

    Are you still having problems El Pirata? I switched to Firefox and all is good now. Just remember to get a good add blocker if you do this.

    Chrome tracks everything you do as well as does virtually every page on the internet.
    Virtually all of them track back to Google so its well worth blocking that as well.

    That's why if you search for a cooker, you'll see ads for cookers on most pages you visit after.
    It always !takes me laugh when someone complains there are ads for milf porn on each site they visit.

    I don't get any of that even when I'm using Google. I'm not an expert but I'm very PC savvy. I spent five years running and maintaining a retail website.

    The reason why I took note of El Pirata's post was due to the fact this website was behaving differently and only this site at the time of posting.

    It had all the hallmarks of a website hack.

    I take good care with spyware scans, virus scans and empty my cache after every web session.

    When I use google they most likely don't like me as I have many extensions that stop/block all that bullshit!

    The reason why I still use Google as an unnecessary evil is due to the fact it works so well. Firefox would be the best if they could iron out all it gremlins and stop it hanging and crashing, that really get's my goat!

    Lets put it this way, I'v stopped the meet cows in your area when looking at......
