I've been watching closely lately about ad popping up in UHH after I had searched for a specific product or item.
This is not getting better either.

If and when I find something that is listed here in UHH, I copy it and open another tab, insert and let FF or IE search for the item.
Shortly, most in a day or two, here is the ad in UHH popping in of the item i searched for.

This is not just one item, it is several of searches I have made to find out what the item is or what the price is.
Get the ads from several of the Photography companies, some that I did not search on either.
Ebay is the worlds worst with ads, I'm getting their ads now that it is anything they are trying to push.

Anyone else experiencing this problem?
Sometimes these ads actually show up on my personal computer too!

Is this an example of "Big Brother Watching"?

Just curious

These ads rely on a folder on your system called "Cookies" - here is an explanation and how to customize your system https://www.dummies.com/education/internet-basics/defining-and-dealing-with-web-cookies/

You can say that again!!
It's getting to the point that I limit my searches.

However, I will try the "cookie" link above to see if this stops the annoying ads!

Thanks for the reply/information

Thanks CindyHouk, I've copied the information about deleting/managing cookies on my computer.
I will get this done this week.....maybe. But for sure during the month of January 2019!!

Thanks again!
