All it takes is for me to go browse their web site for a while then ads for them start appearing here and there as I go to other web sites......including TOTV.

Now.....back to the topic of Dr. Desai!

Thank you Bill or Brillo. This is the most beneficial info about the web that I've gotten in a long time. Answers why I regularly get ads for stuff that I have recently browsed. I followed all the links, and opted out of Microsoft and the other intrusive advertisers. Still, I could not opt-out of advertising from "RichRelevance" and "Doral". I bet they must have some sort of opt-out protection. I will be interested to see how much improvement there is.

Cheers
