Apparently every site now thinks im from Serbia..... i am not though, why Serbia out of all of the countries?

iTunes: https://gyazo.com/a54e984fd0ad437f7d5557fcdcb1d097

amazon.fr: https://gyazo.com/b4adac8f7587db28541b3d5561073062

 

Its honestly very annoying.

 

Recently i have used a VPN, but i connected to the US, not Serbia. I download Hola whenever i need it and then just delete it afterwards.

It's probably because of theVPN and cookies. Clear your cache. If not, you have to reset your chrome profile :(

 

Also, as a PSA, HOLA is pretty terrible.

Want to know which mobo to get?

Choose whatever you need. Any more, you're wasting your money. Any less, and you don't get the features you need.

 

Only you know what you need to do with your computer, so nobody's really qualified to answer this question except for you.

I already tried clearing my cache. I also tried reseting chrome (the bottom option in settings) and it still says serbia for some reason.. Do i have to follow this https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/chrome/vE0K9wPvfYo to fully reset it or anything else?

 

I thought hola is kinda shady... i deleted it everytime after using it, i only needed it for spotify, because its not available in my country. The last time i used it it was even shadier, usually it was just a browser extension, but the last time i had to download an exe and install it. I deleted it after using it. If you know anything else about extensions are adblock and Pop up blocker for Chrome™ - Poper Blocker good to use?

Adblock: 10/10 best one. Don't go for ABP, which is paid off by ad companies. https://getadblock.com/ is best.

 

Pop up blocker for chrome: actually, I've never heard of it. Get a good adblock and popups rarely happen.

 

Oh! And I forgot one thing that you should try doing once something sketchy happens (might work for hola, not sure. But definitely works for sketchy pop-ups). Get AdwCleaner. Even though it's been bought out by Malwarebytes (good or bad, depends on your view), it still works magic.
