pop-ups

sorry, i know they help pay for the site and all, but they are annoying, it almost made me turn away from here when i first came here, a banner would be nicer than a popup window IMO

Maybe we should all sign a petition and give it to the administrators. I think everyone agrees the pop ups are annoying.

Okay okay... I turned off the pop-ups. :o
If I missed any, let me know who the advertiser is and I'll turn it off.

I'll email all of you when my bills come in this month..

I de-selected all the advertisers that had pop-up ads... I got a couple today as well. I went back and re-checked, but everything looks good. I am thinking that maybe it will go into effect tomorrow when the adsite updates (but I could be wrong).

I'll keep trying

I haven't had an annoying popup in a day and a half. The last one I experience was yesterday at 2:35 in the afternoon. I think the problem is fixed. Yeah

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGHHHHH!

These pop-ups are going to be the end of me
Okay, I found the Ms Cleo culprit and promptly turned it off. You see, what happens is that the ad service will ad a new advertiser to the rotation and I don't necessarily know it... that's how the pop-ups keep sneaking in.

I just hit refresh like 30 times and I didn't see any pop-ups... But I can rest assured someone will let me know if any are still there heh heh...

Chris

Okay..found it - was a little tricky as it wasn't listed as "Providian". But..to make you all happy, I painstakingly went through each and every listed advertiser until I found it.

I need to take a break now... lol...
