You don't have to go "that type" of site for the ad company to pick up your address (whatever it is they get--I don't even know what to call it). You may have looked at Amazon for example, and somehow the ad company picked up your "address" (that's what I'll call it) and then sent you whatever ad they wanted. This isn't quite the same thing, but you should see the tons of spam email we get for things I never looked at--Canadian pharmacies, as seen on TV ads, political ads, etc. Right now I have two anti-spam programs running on my email so that these do not get through to my mailbox.
Obviously there are browsers that help eliminate this, but if you do not have one of them, then you need to tighten your security settings on the browser you have. Also if children use your computer, that is another reason to set your security very high or add some sort of parental control/filter to the computer. If computers are set up to block these ads, they will not be visible even if a child does access the site. No one can stop people from sending this out, so we have to do things to our computers so that we do not receive/see it. |
