Do we have to endure pop-ups on the Peachparts site?
 
I was in the middle of perusing the site's threads when I was rudely interrupted by pop-ups from

http://mtn5.goole.ws/ac.php?bannerid=6&zoneid=4&target=_blank&withtext=&source=&timeout=0&ct0=

I don't really like it.:mad::mad::mad:

Are we going to have to endure this nonsense now?:mad::mad::mad:

Or is this a pop-up attack?

I have never had these happen to me before on the site and I don't like it.

Your opinions PLEASE.

FF with ABP seems to do the trick for me.

Please translate your abbreviations.

I updated my protection recently and it's damn good, so I don't know how this slipped past, if it did.

You dont unless you wish too.

Go the the bottom left of this window and change your display preferences to LOW GRAPHICS.

Firefox browser and Add Blocker Plus download – how long have you been interneting?

toomany MBZ 08-23-2009 10:25 PM

I use Safari, no issues and it denotes the last thread I've read, quite helpful.

I've been "interneting" for 12 years and took me a while to figure out your acronyms.. not everyone knows them. How long have you been typing? If you can type at a slow 60 wpm (uh oh an acronym :) ) it shouldn't take you very long to write your words out ;)

Are you sure it came from here, can't say I've ever seen pop up from here.

Don't knock him.
I've probably been interneting as long as anyone and I didn't know ABP.

SIJMU... something I just made up. :D:D:D

IMHO (:D) I've found using Safari on both my mac & HP have kept pop ups to a minimal, if not none on some days...

I had to use IE ( ;) ) the other day, and almost tossed my computer and told it to STFU ( :eek: )

just sayin...

I started interneting a year after they brought in the FFMED. Know what that is?

I bet a buck not, which is my point: If I knew I wouldn't ask. And there's no one out there who knows everything.

You will discover this when someone younger than yourself asks you the same question you asked me.

I have never experienced a pop-up from this site....using Firefox and IE....maybe you have a malware infestation on your PC that happens to be bringing up pop-ups.

Try this for some of the more popular acronyms. But as they change everyday, you might be SOL

I have never seen or been notified of a pop-up from this site in the 2+ years I've been around here...

I would use a spyware removal tool such as "spybot search and destroy" to remove the infestation.

Same here... you been hittin the porn sites Strelnik? :D
