Can I use Firefox or Adblock with my Norton? Not very technically savvy and don't want to mess up my pc.

Thanks in advance, Lainey

If you use Firefox browser and add the Ad blocker you won't get adverts even on the uk site.

Thank you both for your replies. Unfortunately I have now deleted it from my favourites. I was using ZA and did not have to log in and out all the time because it was on my favourites. reassuring to know it is not just me having this problem. Perhaps there are technical probs which will be resolved shortly. I do hope so.

Thank you again, Lainey

For years I have been using GR without all the advertisements. I saved it to my favourites. All of a sudden last night it has disappeared and i cannot get back to it. Has this happened to anyone else?

Thank you Lainey
