Hi. I'm just wondering... Why am I used to not see advertisements not related to computers, such as vacuum cleaners.

I'm not complaining, though, as I really think it's funny to see this in computer-related websites such as this one.

HTPC: AMD Athlon X2 4050e CPU with 780G ATX motherboard running Windows 8 DP (4GB) and Ubuntu; Server: AMD AII X2 240e CPU with 880G-based ATX motherboard running Ubuntu Server 10.04 LTS (8GB)

2 pairs of Insignia NS-B2111s (front/rear), Pioneer SP-C21 Center Speaker, and 12" Velodyne Sub

Just ordered HP Pavilion dv7-6165us from QVC. Will have it by next Friday.

Vacuum Cleaners......

I sleep fine at night knowing we are banning people who deserve it.  Tivon

That's funny.

But I wouldn't click in ads that are not related to personal computers and gaming. :)

I can understand that. I don't think we have control over what it thinks you want to see. Google Adsense is weird like that, but maybe Zach might know something about it. Try clearing out all of your cookies and temp files and see if that helps.
