Ad blocker for "Smart Phones"
I seriously doubt if I am the only member who is an "Oldsmobile Addict" and checks in on the site as often as possible. Many, many times this is via my iPhone (just like now). Well, I experience a very high amount of advertisements, full page style, that has become a nuisance while reading about my favorite subject---Oldsmobiles.
I must first admit that I'm technologically in a time warp and don't know how to install a firewall other than with a torch and welder. Is there a way to block these unwanted ads on a smart device? I've asked my nephews, both in their 20s and much more up to date with electronics than I will ever be to help, but they couldn't find a solution for the phone; they did know how to block the ads on a laptop or a regular computer.
If the moderators or other members know of a way to limit or remove completely these unwanted ads, I would be forever grateful for their help.

It is not just this site.
I do not have a smarty phone but I see my neighbors and friends struggle with them often. Seems every site they use, ads pop up all over, most full screen and many with no X to get rid of them.
I would not even consider getting one of these until an ad block app is available (and that works well). I wonder why one has not been offered so far...

You hit it on the head about the pop ups.I will never buy their products and if I already used the product I would switch. That being said, why would Tampax advertise on a car site. Last week they were the pop up. I know there's a joke there some where. Maybe "pop in" instead of pop up. Ken

Dave, I hear you, and well said! I usually visit this site from my iPad and experience the same problems. I do also frequent another site, and there are a few guys from here there also, Protouringforum.com, and have zero pop ups.....I do understand this site is free, but so is protouring....
