Explain! Har-har. :D

Dodgy Dutch computer!? Tsk, tsk! :)
Link works for me too now, I dunno.

Speaking of dodgy, and totally off-topic btw, the pop-ups are getting a bit out of hand now. I get at least two of 'm, and some (EuroTotaal) are blocking my view entirely and can't be closed or moved!!! What's going on, do we really need this? :shock:

Anyway...
btw, folks: how's the Zzap spirit? :D

really? pop ups or pop unders?

I'll check the configs for how many are meant to appear and see if it's somehow changed.

pop up's are quite evil but they pay relatviely well and help cover the hosting costs somewhat. I'll look into it though.

Okay, I've gotten rid of a good few pop up ad campaigns.

The pop up previewer doesn't work in Mozilla, so I didn't realise how big some of them were.

BTW, my setting say that only a max of one pop up can be shown to a user in a session, so you shouldn't have gotten multiple pop ups.

Nope... every time I click a new link to view a thread etc, I get some sort of popup or pop under.

Yeah, and their faulty as well, in the topleft corner it says 'false' and I can't kill them or close them clicking on them, only via my taskbar. Grrr.
When I'm thru browsing the forum the whole bar is full of 'javascript pop ups'. :( I'm using IE 6+ btw)
I hope it's not a huge sacrifice to get rid of 'm? I hope?

Ta!
Rob :)

And ah, Mort, what about that Limahl cd, huh, huh?? :wink:

I actually bought it as a present for my m8`s wife (she wanted lemah or is it Lemur :wink: ). So I bought her Limahl instead, easy mistake to make eh :P

Ps the Dragons Lair laser disks shrunk down to Dvd are going very cheap and make a good alternative to mame, these are a few I won this week :-)

With the current settings, the absolute MAX anybody should be getting (and it's unlikely you'd get this many) is 1 POP UP and 3 POP Unders per session.

Are any of you getting more than this? If so please write down the advert name and it's link if possible and post them to me.

Generally when I'm browsing the forums, I only get 1 www.888.com pop under.

Iain - is it possible to make the banner at the top fo the page a bit smaller, as it looks massive on the main forum page?

Ads seemed to have limited themselves now to what you specified Iain... at least with me.

Unless, of course, you use a browser that blocks pop-ups.
