argh...

It boggles my mind. When are these ad companies going to realize that pop-up ads just annoy people? I don't know about you, but they need to revamp this whole thing. I don't hate ads. In fact, everytime I get a CompUSA, Best buy, or Good Guys ad in the mail, I look through it from cover to cover. They need to make banner ads like that. Imagine that... a non-flashy banner ad that takes you to a page will a lot of things on sale and no pop-ups or redirects. What a concept.

Take Victoria's Secret ad for example. Half the people who get that in the mail pay for it! The moral - More nude women = better advertising :D

Well, they're down again until our network guys can chew out the appropriate people.

Support CompGeeks, because they keep us running. :P

I think that pop-up ads should be considered a form of spam and be outlawed. These g**damned things are universally hated, so WHY do websites continue to use them?

If I encounter them too much at a website, I stop using that website. ATTENTION ADVERTISERS - put THAT in your pipe and smoke it. Stupid-ass f*cking people....
