This morning I visited the website and was being served an ad from a place called Sexy Star Casino. The ad displays women playing with their breasts, covering their breasts with hands or bikini tops.

I am concerned because i know young children do visit this website and I as a parent myself would not want my child to come in to contact with such an ad.

Some ad generators I know served up ads based on what someone views, but I sure do not view sites like these!

I took a screenshot, if any admin wants it to take care of the problem let me know.

The google ads here tend to be based on what you have been looking at on the web. But if you are concerned, I would say that you should email marty@geckosunlimited.com with your screen shot. But I don't think that we really have much control over which ads google places. I personally have never encountered any "sexy" ads from google on here. Also something to note is that if you become a Forum Supporter, all ads go away.

Hi Ethan,

To name a few of the websites I visit on a daily basis: facebook, deviantart, pet stores, this forum, dendroboard, zwerggeckos, some web design websites and sometimes my local weather website. None of these contain nudity, so I doubt it is on my end.

I will shoot an email off to Marty.

P.S I was let go from my job so a subscription will not be happening. Sorry

Hey, since I really dislike religious and political advertisements that pop off this site, can marty disable those too?

change your settings to disable adult based content on your computer. if its an issue, its your responsibility to restrict your offsprings' web viewing capabilities. that is why parental controls exist.

For the record I have parental controls on my computer as well as several other controls. Nothing is 100% proof. Take popup blockers for example. I have 4 of those on my computer, all of them good ones with strong reviews. Yet from time to time something comes up.

How much more would you suggest I install on my computer?

This is the second time I have tried to point out a possible issue only to be met with abrasive tones that is all my fault. I will be sticking to the regular sections I post in from now on.

Sorry I bothered to care about helping out a place I enjoy visiting.

Tell me, Sebastian, more about Adblock Plus. Is it free to users?

[Sebastian]

Hi Elizabeth,

yes it is for free. Just look for Firefox add-ons or google for Firefox+adblock plus. I´m sure you´ll find it.
I find it to be a very useful tool because I´m no longer annoyed about ads.
