  Go to ozbargain settings and disable ads. Click on my account, then click settings, then change the banner ads settings to no ads.

    For those wondering, instructions "Go to ozbargain settings and disable ads. Click on my account, then click settings, then change the banner ads settings to no ads." are correct as far as finding that location is concerned, can't explain Catullus's problem.

    Thanks Twix and JV, that link works also (easier way to original instructions page)

      Ozbargainers get the site as a service and it costs money to keep the site going. It's one of the few sites that I have got whitelisted and have ads showing.

  Excellent, but hard to find, thanks 😁

  If anyone spots an ad like this again, could you please take a screenshot and let us know the URL of the ad? So scotty can report it and get it blocked.

  These ads shouldn't be showing but some can sneak through.

  Yeah bloody video ads..
  Interrupts music playback on Android too.
  I usually set an an adblock in the VPN settings but then wifi doesn't work on some networks I use.

  Will try the settings above, Cheers
