Does anyone know what I am refering to here? Any idea on how to stop this from ruining internet surfing?

Fuck this stupid fucking ad. I even got one visiting the site for my credit card. Pigfuckers.

Usually I just use lynx, so no annoying popups.

― Josh, Monday, 23 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Yeah, I've been seeing that myself at the library recently, we've all been complaining about it. Tom P will no doubt have things to say.

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 23 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

i get that fucking ad EVERY DAY!!! what is going on???? i feel your pain.

― amy, Monday, 23 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

try downaloading webwasher - it gets rid of all ads, plus whatever cookies, blocks pop ups etc

― Geoff, Monday, 23 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I mean, do they think people aren't annoyed by their idiot tactics? Do they think people aren't enraged? It would be like in a supermarket someon ejust runnin g up and yelling BUY KLEENEX!!!! all the time

The x10 people are nice enough to supply a 30 day pop up killer.

The Webwasher is so cool.
But i read ads in magazines, in front of movies, walking down the street, for 8 minutes during every 1/2 hour of TV, why do web ads bother us.

― anthony, Tuesday, 24 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I don't like it when windows that I didn't want open on my computer.

― Josh, Tuesday, 24 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

So do banner ads bother you

― anthony, Tuesday, 24 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Yes, but for aesthetic reasons. At least they don't OPEN NEW WINDOWS.

― Josh, Tuesday, 24 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I agree. But we are in a capitalist society, its the price we pay.

― anthony, Tuesday, 24 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

The price we pay for what? Other people's greedy asses?

My favorite web sites do not have ads.

― Josh, Tuesday, 24 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

If you use a mac iCab has really good ad filtering features, not very pretty (or stable in this version) though

― Ed, Tuesday, 24 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

No, it's not. But my Powerbook is too minimally equipped to run even iCab satisfactorily. Oh well.

― Josh, Tuesday, 24 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

If we live in a system that is dependent on selling to surrive, ads will be sold. And most of my favorite sights do not have ads as well.

Turn off javascript!

― Kris, Tuesday, 24 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Javascript is often one of the reasons I am even using a graphical browser. It's got too many useful applications to be turned off. Even josh blog uses Javascript.

― Josh, Tuesday, 24 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

i always imagine josh blog to be created on an enormous computer that fills a room in a big 1978 stylee while josh feeds in the data for joshblog with ones and zeroes.

― gareth, Tuesday, 24 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

No its NOT the price we pay, its lunacy. If we are willin gto go to the trouble of going to their site to TURN OFF the ad for something we OBVIOUSLY dont want, why the hell woudl we want it on after 30 days> ? Just wait until everyone does this, then you wont be able to click without 40 windows opening. THis should be illeagal. THeir ad pops up when you go to sites not affiliated with them!

― Mike Hanley, Tuesday, 24 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

This damn add makes me want to kill somebody, preferrably someone who has something to do with the wretched product. I don't care what it does or how good a product it may be, at this point I would never buy it because of that stupid popup add.

This ranks up there with all the phone calls I get from the credit card companies trying to sell me their credit protection services. "So can I sign you up for a free month of our service?" "No but you can go have sex with yourself! Goodbye"

― tOM p, Tuesday, 24 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I like the ad. I mean - wireless video camera *anywhere* That's pretty neat. Has anyone bought one and used it to spy on naked ladies?

― Nick, Wednesday, 25 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

actually I think thats its suggested use...theres a hottiew on the ad with no aparent purpose other than to suggest voyuerism

― Mike Hanle y, Wednesday, 25 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Isn't the obvious retort to "Put this wireless video camera anywhere!" something along the lines of "Up your ass!"?

― Dan Perry, Wednesday, 25 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Can I spy on naked men?

― Emma, Wednesday, 25 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

But Emma, you're female. You can just ask.

― Nitsuh, Wednesday, 25 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Hell, they (AKA The Man) use "hotties" to sell CAR INSURANCE and MICROSOFT PRODUCTS. In that light, using them to sell (web?) cameras makes perfect sense.

― David Raposa, Wednesday, 25 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Use this camera to spy on Emma as she takes a shit in her own home WC!

― Mike Hanle y, Wednesday, 25 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

This brings back bad memories of our old house and Pete with his endoscope in the room under mine. I didn't realise I was allowed to go up to men and demand that they strip, I will try it more in future.
