295354 2004-11-26 08:52:00 I am referring to the use of the adblock extension here. Sorry if I didn't make this clear. george12 (7)
295355 2004-11-26 20:19:00 Errr.... And an ad-blocker kills multimedia playback?

Maybe its just me but I fail to see the logic of an Ad-Blocker killing mpeg playback??

295356 2004-11-26 21:14:00 It doesn't kill MPEGs, I just happen to never see that ad. I used to see it back when I use IE though.

Cheers George

Does that mean once a day, or once period? It runs for me everyday. It auto-runs, and downloads the clip (using my bandwidth) without asking me first. Lucky I'm not on dial-up, or on a capped plan.

295358 2004-12-01 04:53:00 Ive seen it on the side of my screen 11 times so far today at work :-/

Sadly three times its began playing when I didnt want it to. At one stage it had completely locked Firefox and I couldnt do anything but wait for it to play out.

Im yet to see it at home running Gentoo linux however :D Firefox too......

295359 2004-12-01 06:48:00 I have seen it quite a few times and recognise the TV3 news team, John Campbell and Karen Hirschvelt. Since I always watch TV3 news all the time (it being the best) they have nothing to win by showing me.

Still, I must agree it is a bit of a pain. Nothing to get too excited about though !
cheers

295361 2004-12-01 11:03:00 Netscape + Hosts file + Kerio = no ads :D Greg S (201)
295362 2004-12-02 01:46:00 Its odd coz Ive never seen it at home running Gentoo Linux 2004.2 and the latest Firefox, but I have here at work running WinXP SP1 & the latest Firefox.... Simply luck of the draw? Chance?? Chilling_Silence (9)
