The Toms Hardware notifications still appear. I just checked again to ensure that the -do not allow any site notifications option- is checked. Such assistance has not been very welcoming so far, consisting mostly of me changing how I deal with web sites, rather than how to get Toms Hardware themselves to stop infecting my computer.Īs I have pointed out, I have made the changes to my browser. Possibly, simply visiting Toms Hardware again after making my changes causes them to be overridden because.wait for it.I have checked the enable email notification box at the bottom of this page so I can continue to get assistance in how to stop Toms Hardware hostile practices. The address presented to me is quite likely not the correct one to make the individual block option effective. Of course that brings up the whole issue what is the correct address that should be entered. I have taken the extra step of listing Toms Hardware individually in addition to the universal setting.

Third: I have already taken the step of blocking _all_ sites in content management. What makes me wonder is why you personally find it amusing that someone objects to a web site loading unwanted material over top of other web sites content in a way that forces the user to make adjustments to his computer to stop it. If Toms Hardware does have an opt out option it is so hidden as to make it difficult for users to find it. Allowing selected sites to notify me of new content is an essential function of how I use some sites.

Second: I am careful about what I am doing. Follow the above advice and rid yourself of this evil!!!įirst: web push notifications are old but they aren't good if you don't want them. You should be more careful about what you are doing or you could make costly mistakes online. Yes yes yes they use good ol' fashioned web push notifications but you can remove sites - including evil Tom's Hardwrae - individually.
