Arvoitus 1 #4 September 18, 2012 Its caused by the ads. That server is owned by media mind. Easiest way to get rid of it is probably to block the ads. I dunno how its done with that browser since I've never used it but I trust its modern enough to have it built-in.Your rights end where my feelings begin.

I dunno how its done with that browser since I've never used it but I trust its modern enough to have it built-in. The best way to block ads is by blocking them in the hosts file or your DNS server (that way it's not browser specific). I do both. My NAS is serving as my DNS server and I wrote a script so that every Sunday, it will download the newest ad block hosts file and basically import it into the DNS server config. Any device that gets its DHCP from my router will get my NAS as it's only DNS server. I also have the hosts file installed in my laptops as well as my iPhone."I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well considering that the average Mac users finds a two button mouse confusing I think setting up your own DNS server is out of the question.Your rights end where my feelings begin.
