I am sure that there must be some way to stop adds from showing up on my
computer. I have searched the internet for a program that will put an
end to my add problem with no joy. Some of what I read was above my
technical ability to follow. Any suggestions appreciated.
The vast majority of ads can be avoided using CSS. Some examples are at:

From there

can be extracted into your profile's chrome directory (create it if you don't
already have it) and used as-is as a place to start.
Compelling sites that don't work in SeaMonkey due to this type of blocking, or
UA

No method is perfect, but they help a lot.
I use uBlock Origin (currently 1.16.4.11) and NoScript (5.1.9) and ads are
mostly gone. Or set up Pi-hole https://pi-hole.net/

I have been using AdBlock Plus for years with excellent resiults:

Also, its "Element Hiding Helper" accessory is quite useful:
