Yep and its got something to do with the google ads or something.
Here is the fix
Go to
C: \WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc
on your PC and you will find a file called "hosts".
Open this file with NOTEPAD
the text will look something like this
# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
127.0.0.1 localhost
then add in directly below the last line this
127.0.0.1 pagead2.googlesyndication.com
Then save the file how it is.
Close any Internet Explorer apps and re start IE again.....BINGO!
