  We aren’t running those ads, notice the “ads not by this site” below it.

  In the past, this has been the result of a corrupt browser extension or add-on, so I recommend disabling all of yours to see if that makes any improvement. Then, if it does, just re-enable each one individually until you find the cause.

  Thanks for the suggestion. I knew that the ads weren’t yours, but since they appear only on your pages, I thought I’d ask you about them.

  Nice call. “Fast save 1.1” extension on Chrome was the culprit. Thanks again.

  Did you have any luck with disabling your browser’s extensions?

  If so, would you please let us know which one was the problem?
