582917 2007-08-20 06:01:00 Easier method:

Just click on your little stopsign for ADB, and click on PREFERENCES, then type in "ads . hostingdirect . co . nz" (without the quotes . . . or C/P it into the blank line) into the blank line, hit ENTER and APPLY the results .

Bye-Bye stoooopid peel-y junk!

While you're at it, add http://jobuniverse . co . nz too .

Looks like what's his name is earning brownie buttons in the ivory towers again .

If this gets blocked or removed by what's his name, then I'll personally PM everybody instructions on how to do it . . . that's a threat .

But I just added the url into my Hosts file and it blocks it equally well.

Someone should make this a sticky at the top of the forums page. Having that ads.hostingdirect.com almost makes the forums unusable for me, due to it taking so long to load from the ad server.

582922 2007-08-20 19:39:00 Bletch, not that I really give a sh*t, but I know others do... if given the chance, how quickly could you fix (not nuke) the forum clock?

Maybe the PF1 admins should be paying you :D

INcidentally, all I did to kill the peel-me was to block the source (konqueror) "pcworld.co.nz
