Pop-ups

[Mao]

Am I the only one that gets pop-up ads for e-bay once in a while from this site? I'm not actually complaining about it (yet), but I just want to confirm that I'm not the only one getting this.

[Alexander's Horse]

YES! Turn them OFF please.

I also get it on my system, and I get it at other sites also. Stupid e-bay pop-up! I'll never use it.

Make it stop...

Turn them off yourself...with something like Proxomitron or ZoneBlaster you'll never be bothered by ads or pop-ups again.

Shock the what?

Yeah right, and while I'm at it I'll just go and tell my office system administrator I post here all day long. Good solution Sherlock.

They are not quite as irritating as that damn coffee shop thing that keeps popping up in the off topic.

[Chris 62]

Those damn things are back!!!! Isn't there some way to stop it?!!?

Please please make them stop. I may visit the site less.

The obvious solution, which you've obviously considered and rejected, or, more likely, probably, didn't even consider, or, more likely, in fact, isn't in your Duty Specifications, is to close the browser and do some work.

Mark, I thought we dealt with this last year? I thought it was taken care of. So what do we need to do to straighten this out again?

[orange]

I hope you are getting BIG BUCKS for those... Because they ARE REALLY ANNOYING!

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

[Provost Harrison]

I quite agree, they are constantly getting in my way, and they seem to be just about every advert. GET RID OF THE POP UPS BEFORE I SCREAM!!!

[MrFun]

Get rid of that junk ad that keeps popping up please!

You're suppose to offer a forum where customers can gather together to share their knowledge and resources - NOT antagonize them with meaingless junk ads that pop up.

Ad banners are fine - get rid of pop ups. They are not worth the antagonism that they cause.
