"kijiji help desk" sells paid ads that look like text links. How to block?

I am getting ads provided by http://help.kijiji.net/ca/knowledgebase.php?article=40 that appear as highlighted links in text on various websites. This is very annoying. How do I block these?
Currently, these ads appear to be solely for usinsuranceonline.com, but they appear multiple times per page- I mean, 20 or 30 times!
Is there an adblocker for this?
A sample of affected sites:
washingtonexaminer.com
clickorlando.com
http://losangeles.cbslocal.com
This is not a virus or a problem with my computer, it is a paid-for advertisement inserted into the text of the website, provided by kijiji.net.

You can see the list of your previously installed extension in the System Details List attached to your first post.
Note that your System Details List shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize some prefs each time you start Firefox.
The user.js file is only present if you or other software has created it, so normally it wouldn't be there.
You can check its content with a plain text editor if you didn't create this file yourself.
The user.js file is read each time you start Firefox and initializes preferences to the value specified in this file, so preferences set via user.js can only be changed temporarily for the current session.
If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:

    Try placing the iPod in recovery mode and then try restoring the iPOd via iTunes.  For recovery mode see:

  • My 3gs has a icon at the top right next to the battery life that looks like a lock with an arrow around it and i dont know what it mean or what i did to get it there any help?

    my 3gs has a icon at the top right next to the battery life that looks like a lock with an arrow around it and i dont know what it mean or what i did to get it there any help?

    Screen orientation lock.  Double click the home button to bring up the recent app bar.  Then finger swipe left-to-right to bring up the iPod controls.  The icon on the far left (circle with lock in it) is the orientation lock button - press it, and the lock will go away.

  • TS1398 I have a little symbol in the upper right side of my iPad that looks like a lock and now I cant get connected to the internet. Can anyone help me ( my granddaughter was playing on my iPad before this happened)

    I have a symbol in the upper right hand corner of my iPad that looks like a lock.  Now I am unable to connect to wifi.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    If you see a lock icon in the upper right corner of the screen - then the screen orientation is locked.
    Try the side switch above the volume rocker first and see if that unlocks the screen. If that doesn't do it, double tap the home button and swipe to the right and look for the lock icon all the way to the left.
    If the screen is unlocked but still will not rotate, reset the iPad.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the button
    For the WiFi issue try Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. You can also power cycle your router, Unplug it for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in.

  • My iphone 4s has korean characters and 1 icon that looks like IC at the back panel and KCC-CMM-APA-A1387.

    My iphone 4s has korean characters and 1 icon that looks like IC at the back panel and KCC-CMM-APA-A1387. Compared to the other iphone 4s that have 6 icons printed. Serial number is recognized by apple systems though like App Store, Coverage Check etc. Should i be worried about the authenticity of this product? I got it at a Mall shop that sells apple products but I am not so comfortable about the difference of the icons at the back. I told them about my issue and they said if it were bootleg I wouldnt be able to register the product and the serial number which I was able to do. Help please.

    Oops sorry. My bad. I'm in the Philippines. I'm quite concerned because i know a lot of bootlegged stuff go around the market here. Yes, they told me it was unlocked and not tied up with a local network carrier so I can use any network sim card with it. The icons on the phone and all functions are available and working well like all iphone 4Ss that i have tried. Its just the icons printed at the back panel of the phone that are different, the ones that look like FC X C E etc printed at the back of a common iphone. Mine has an icon that looks like IC only.

  • HT4527 I can't get all my music I purchased from Itunes on my iphone to work.  When displaying them on my computer I can't play them or on my phone.  They have a little icon to the left that looks like a repeat icon.  It won't let me play them.  Please he

    I can play the music on my itunes under my purchased section but when I go to my phone when I have it connected the a lot of the songs won't play on my song or from the itunes under my phone.  They have a little icon to the left of them that looks like a repeat icon.  It won't let me delete them from there nor play them.  When on my phone only it won't play them it just brings up the clip art but will not play.  Please can anyone help me.
    Thanks,

    Thank you - I thought that might be the case BUT why doesn't the music play that I have bought from itunes - do you happen to know please.
    All that happens is it just flicks through it all and won't play any of it???
    As in I select the song and it just flicks back one screen (if I am making sense).....
    I am really stuck and cannot work out what's gone wrong that's all.
    Considering a reset of my new iphone and trying again but done that once and it's still the same.

  • How do I restore my Ipad 4 from my desktop computer? My charger was broken. I bought a new one but now it won't charge. I have a BATTERY bar in the middle of the screen that is flashing RED and I have a symbol on the bottom that looks like a charger.

    How do I restore my Ipad 4 from my desktop computer? My charger was damaged so I bought a new one but it won't charge. On my Ipad, I have a BATTERY bar in the middle that is flashing RED and an icon on the bottom that looks like the end of a charger. I have tried to force into reset mode, by holding the sleep key and home button SEVERAL times but it does NOT work. I have plugged my Ipad into my desktop computer, but I do not have a screen on my desktop that is coming up. THIS HAPPENED BEFORE AFTER I DID AN UPDATE AND WAS LOCKED OUT AND I USED EITHER ICLOUD OR ITUNES TO RESTORE, NOT SURE WHICH AND I FORGOT HOW.

    Hi MrsMoosie,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPad. If your iPad isn't responding or doesn't appear to be charging, you may find the information and troubleshooting steps outlined in the following articles helpful, in particular the following portion:
    If you don't see the charging screen within an hour, or you see the connect to power screen, check your connector, USB cable, and power adapter. Make sure that everything is plugged in firmly, free of debris, and not damaged. You might want to try a different USB cable or power adapter.
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
    If you can’t charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Regards,
    - Brenden

    Hi,
    Try a Reset of the Phone... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the Phone Off...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 10 - 15 Seconds...
    Turn the Phone On...
    If that does not help... See Here:

  • Hi, I have this green mark (with pointing arrow looks like a link) on some words show on my window screen when I open a web page, I wonder if it is a virus link or such. Need help how to get rid of it. Thanks

    Hi, I have this green mark (with pointing arrow looks like a link) on some words show on my window screen when I open a web page, I wonder if it is a virus link or such. Need help how to get rid of it. Here's the example:
    WING
    GAMES
    MAJORITY
    Thanks

    If the third link you posted (the link containing the word "majority") does not look like the following then you inadvertently installed adware.
    That particular page should resemble the following:
    The word "majority" in the third paragraph should not be a link and should not have the green icon associated with it.
    To learn how this may have occurred, and how to prevent it from occurring in the future, read How to install adware
    Most so-called "news" websites are nothing more than entertainment outlets that cater to prurient interests, and contain advertisements that leave the user about three clicks away from installing junk. If you decide to frequent those websites, Safari's "Reader" feature helps minimize that exposure.

    The problem is that even after I have run various antivirus, malware programs and looked in the registry for anything suspicious, next time i open up firefox and get online, the damn thing pops up. I guess i will now go and block the url and see if that does it.

  • Sending email using mail that looks like a web page

    I want to send an email that looks like a web page (kind of like those emails from apple or other companies). I tried making a document in Pages, but then that didn't quite work. Of course, I could make the pages document into a pdf file, but that's not ideal. Any recommended application?

  • HT2188 I'm presuming my old iPod id dead meat, but after 24 charging a get the Apple Logo followed by an image that looks like a file folder with an exclamation point. Is there anyway we can resurrect all trhe music on it & transfer into a new iPod?

    You can try putting it into Disk Mode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1363
    If that works, you can see if the computer will recognize it when connected, either in iTunes or by the system.
    NOTE:  You can also try putting it into Disk Mode WHILE it is already connected to the computer.
    If the iPod is recognized, you may be able to use one of the third-party methods or utilities to transfer song files from iPod to computer.  You can do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer" to get some links (add "mac" to the search if your computer is a Mac).
    Once the song files are on your computer, add them to that computer's iTunes library, then sync it to the new iPod.
