"Hey it doesn't work! I got logged out!" "This site sux, it's too slow!'

"This site broke my comp!" "Where's my T-shirt!" "I don't wanna see the ads!"

"Why don't you help me?" "Where's my free computer?"

Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut. Most of the time it's a joy and a wonderful resource. I've had lots of help here and try in my late newbie style to help others.

Congrats. to you all and keep up the good work. Mark c

67156 2002-08-05 03:45:00 Yup, agreed there.

BTW the only reason I'm not watching the ads right now is because I had to turn off Java to be able to access PressF1. It was the Ads causing me problems. Counter productive?

67158 2002-08-05 06:00:00 I have no problem with having a few ads on sites as people like Bruce and robo need to get paid somehow.

Provided that they are noticable but not obtrusive. I hate pop-ups and pop-unders.

I also very much hate those annoying ads which pop-out ontop of text. Usually right in the middle of an article.

Also the ads that look like dialog boxes and the like are really really annoying.

But I would like to know if it is possible to fool the advert into thinking that it has been displayed when it hasn't been.

67159 2002-08-05 06:09:00 You could probably get that result for each ad by NOT removing cookies. Or writing your own cookies. But I bet that double-click have lots of advertisements, and you won't be able to predict the codes for all of them.:D Graham L (2)
67160 2002-08-05 09:39:00 I get the impression from your post that you are angry. You are the boss and I hate seeing anyone angry. So I send a :) I understand you need to have advertisements. Some of them are actually quite good and I have click on some of the links. however If I have ever made you angry or annoyed you in any way I appologize, and hope to see you happy again. :D :D

There are some many great things in life. Don't worry be happy

:) :)
