Northeast Ohio | I have never seen an HD ad here. However, I believe that the ads may be targeted based on your surfing habits (the ads are reading the cookies stored on your computer). I have Amazon and HP on when I connect to Vision-Riders. That being said, you may have been visiting HD sites and it is picking that up. |

New Bohemia, VA | I never knew who the guy was until I read about the accident. Continued prayers for his family and friends. The only positive thing I see coming out of that is is it is a reminder to all of us to pay attention when passing, and be careful overall.
As far as the banner ads, they are influenced by cookies from sites visited, I see Victory ads all the time. You just gave away as to what you spend your time looking at on the internet.... |

Orlando, FL | I think ScoreBo is correct. I have seen the ad. And most ads today are based on your surfing history. Try it. Look at a few sites for something you would never, ever look for. Then pay attention and you will notice ads for that item or similar items popping up on your internet sites. They got ya with target marketing the new fangled internet way~~

Orlando, FL | Could be those coolies from way back when they were forced to built the railroad! LOL LOL
Yea, I'm sure he meant cookies. But you would have to do that every time you surfed. It's not really a workable solution. The answer is to enjoy the fact that the all knowing big brother is trying to make your shopping easier! LOL LOL LOL

| What's the problem? Afraid of the competition? I am sure if you pay the webmasters a good amount of change they can get rid of the ads.... Go ride. |
