Amazon pop ups
#26
guys.. its really simple to get rid of these for good
*install the browser plug-in 'Ghostery' .. it auto-blocks ad trackers and background browsing. I am using it right now, on Firefox..and its blocking 16 active ad trackers from this site.
**you can also use the 'Ghostery' browser, its available for every flavor of device. You will NEVER get pop ups. NEVER!

But I do like browsing on my iPad. Tonight I tried a suggestion to clear Safari's history and cookies. The popup came back, twice as bad, if that is possible. Before I did that, i would get the pop-up once and a while. Now I can't get on NAM at all. The Safari pop-up block was on prior to this and appears to have been no help. Also, it is not just my iPad; it is my iPhone too.
Why just NAM and why just Apple?
I have seen cornjuice recommend Ghostery several times on several other threads. Is there anyone else out there using it?
And cornjuice - Could you tell us what the screen shots you posted came from? They seem to be off a desktop or laptop running Windows. Any idea how well Ghostery works on Apple products?

You are not the only old coot around here. I am sitting at a 10 year laptop right now. No problems.

My screenshots are taken from desktop running win10. I use ghostery on every system at home including the kids rigs. I use ghostery browser for phone. I have never received any pop-up on NAM or otherwise. I do not believe in Anti Virus software at all, and have not used any for over 20yrs now. Ghostery has been the best safety/privacy tool I have ever used..and it's free. If you don't like contributing your analytic data to them, just click the opt out during the install.
try it..youve nothing to lose..only gain. 😊

I ended up downloading norton anti pop up on my iPhone. So far so good. It’s free in the App Store.[/left][/QUOTE]
I just tried Norton Ad Blocker (didn't find anti pop in the App Store). Even after "Clear history and Website Data" I still get the amazon pop up. This is on iphone 8 running iOS 11.2.6 in Safari. So far, I've been able to use the Puffin Browser with no pop-ups for NAM or any other site. Puffin user experience, however, leaves a lot to be desired.

You’re right it is norton ad blocker. you have to go into your settings and enable it for it to work.

Ah ha. That was it. I had neglected to go to Settings-Safari-Content Blockers and turn it on. Steps 7,8&9 https://support.norton.com/sp/en/us/...rProfile_en_us. That seem to be the trick. I was able to type and post this from Safari. Yay! Thank You so much!
