Intrusive ad at www.lakeconews.com. I click on "close ad" every time it pops in. It reappears every time I click thrrough the first few words of a Lake County CA news. I read the article and then go back to the home page. THE AD KEEPS REAPPEARING. I see an advisory "Click on the ad and I will walk you through how to block it." I cli8ck on close ad repeatedly and see no way to block the thing overlaying article words, again & again. No way to get rid of it. No "walking through." I give up. Ad wins.

   EDIT...SORRY:

   QUOTE " It reappears every time I click through the first few words of a Lake County CA news. END QUOTE.
   Should have ended that sentence with the word "article."
   QUOTE: " thrrough. END QUOTE.
   Should have omitted one of those letter "r's" END QUOTE
   QUOTE: " I cli8ck on close ad" END QUOTE.
   Should not have left numeral "8" in the middle of the word "click." END QUOTE.

   Hi Lea,

   No worries! Can you please:

   1. Click the AdBlock button and select Options, then click SUPPORT. Next to "Have our team requested some debug info?" click here and paste the text from the box into this discussion.
      
   2. Attach a screenshot with the ad(s) clearly marked.

   Sorry, but your instructions have me feeling more concerned than advised. Trying to get a screenshot of the annoying ad is not possible. The following directions do not seem to be clear:
   (COPY/PASTE): " Click the AdBlock button and select Options, then click SUPPORT. Next to "Have our team requested some debug info?" click here and paste the text from the box into this discussion."
   END COPY/PASTE

   Also, I have no way of knowing whether a "team requested some debug info..." or what that question has to do with blocking a butting-in ad.

   I will wait until the confusion gets cleared up.
