Default Club Lexus ad's out of control!

Is it me or are the ads totally out of control now. Pop ups, flash all over the place, and sponsor threads that have nothing to do with Lexus. Recently I have a problem where I could not even use the site. Whatever ad was greying out everything and not allowing me to click any link. Both Firefox and Safari were being affected by this today.

Well, I have had enough.

Those with Firefox, may I suggest installing a couple of add-ons.

I installed Flash Block, Ad block plus, and one called Block linkbuck plus. It makes surfing this site 100 times more enjoyable. All the ads are blocked and the pages are loading fine. The speed increase is great. Just a heads up as I really like this site, except for the excessive advertising!

Ad block plus ftw

There are lots of ads but you also get CL for free, what do you want your money back

Just block them if they bother you. There should be NO popups, please report those in this forum if you see them

Only pop ups have been on the mobile surfing. Very annoying. I enjoy helping others for free. If you want to share some of your ad revenue please feel free...

Not my ad revenue. The moderator team are all volunteers.

I've reported the mobile pop ups I see on my iPad and get them blocked. Please report them no matter the device.
