    Google sponsored links.removing undesirable sponsors
    Hi,

    My teenage stepson has browsed some porno I suspect ( denial of course! ). I use Google homepage and the sponsored links are now porno related. Not something my partner wants showing.
    Is there anyway to remove this? Or if I pick a different subject, will sponsors pick up on this and put something more healthy as their adverts?

    Has anyone out there any ideas please?

    Hi,
    I dare say that is basing the sponsored links on the contents of your History folder in your browser. Go to Tools, Interent Option, and Clear History (in IE) with similar options for other browsers.
    Peace,

    Thanks Clarke, I've done that.
    By the way I really like the chop in the picture. Any chance you could send a larger picture as me and my stepson love trikes.

    Cheers Richard.

    Hi,
    Glad you like it, not mine and I merely used it because I work on Deeres among other things. Here is the link to it:
