No adds here using Crome with AdBlock -- have you tried clicking that "why these adds?" link and see if it's something you can disable perhaps?

No adds here using FF & Adblock - I wonder is it a European vs. US thing (me & Jibz being in eu/europe)

Good point.

I'm down under :)
But yes, I tried disabling/enabling AdBlock/DNTMP/Ghostery a few times, (this is only in Dragon), and it's come good, ie. no ads. Don't know what happened, maybe it managed to sneak in an extension update while I wasn't looking.
Firefox, (plus addons), has always blocked the ads - that's my main browser. Dragon is my portable browser.

Most google search results now are tied to your location and social network. Start by getting rid of that Gmail account if you have one.

I'm not sure why you think this is a personal problem, it's not my screenshot :) maybe read the articles :)

Yikes. They must also have some kind of location thing using your IP address by region because when I type "pizza" I get *eight* listings for local restaurants in my town! I'm not even logged in to any Google services! :o
I don't yet know what I have to fiddle with to turn that off.
