these things are soooo annoying...

I was looking at some boxscores on espn, and this huge blue thing covers the bulk of my screen and advertises the toyota Matrix (stupid name).

that is freakin annoying.....

I went to techzone last night and 5 frigging windows popped up. 3 had ads and 2 were empty. Talk about driving away an audience.

UGO always has something along those lines. I wouldn't mind so much, but it makes the page unuseable for too long. And you can't force the add to close. It's a bitch.

exactly TBG....
With normal popup ads, there's programs out there that kill them immediately...
BUT, when the add covers up your whole page >( grrrr....
