    Was that the ad they chose to display? Or google ads has been tracking your browsing and you have been looking up Volt's recently?

    At the bottom of the threads, including this one, are AdChoices. They do change.

    I use ABP on chrome, havent seen an ad in months...pages never loaded so fast either.

    Sorry i know clicking on them helps pay the bills but days of waiting for pages to load for ads i never wanted are gone for me.

    Be careful, someone will complain that you are "stealing" pages. :)
