Nope, it's not just you Hawkeye, I don't the pop ups that much, but the ones that won't seem to go away really annoy me!

Mornin!! Yeah too bad we can't use all those ads for target practice! Oh well, it's become a challenge to see how fast I can click all those x's.
Have a great day all!

Mornin! Pop ups byte
If you download the "opera" browser, it has a capability to turn off pop ups, but I don't know how compatible it is with a lot of web sites. I'm not willing to spend the $$$ to test it. They do have a free version.......
Who wants to be a guinea pig? <---???

Good Morning Pop-ups, telemarketers, I can't stand either. C'mon Friday!

Good Morning!
It'll probably take a few years yet for the wild frontier of the WWW to get settled.
I suspect that PhotoPoint failed because they thought people would go spend time at the site .... instead, we just used it as a cheap and easy way to store our pictures.
Y'all have a great day, eh ... if anyone has some extra cold, send it this way please ... we really don't need mid 40's in January

Good morning
You can stop the pop-ups if you turn off the JAVA in your options on your browser.
Or you can get a program that prevents any ads from appearing on ANY web page... And leaves everything else intact (good program )
try ad-aware or something like it

Good morning. Art, you can have ours. It is 17 degrees here this morning and we had about 3 inches of snow last night. Roads are a mess. Cars are tucked in for a while. Posted by HTWLSS (Member # 117) on 08 January, 2002 11:08 AM:
