Thanks to Djohnson and Rodman for the AdBlock tip. Just installed it on Safari. Seems to have removed that pesky old guy wagging his finger at me on the Audiogon forums home page.
And I also thank those for the tips on ad blocking extensions. After a little investigation, I decided to try "uBlock Origin" with Chrome, which according to reviews, works extremely well and requires much less CPU and memory. Since the installation about 2 days ago, it has blocked over 7,500 ads, and no doubt pages are loading faster.
My thanks as well to djohnson and rodman for the advice. I looked around and found Adblock on apple's site and it was free so I tried it and there are no more pop ups (including that numbskull waving his finger at me) on this site.
Feeling good about it I donated $10 the the team that made the app. I did the same for AdwareMedic as it does a wonderful job on Macs.
