Does anyone find those pop-up ads annoying?
Does anyone find it REALLY annoying when you want to do something on the internet in as little time as possible, except that stops you because a stupid banner pops up? If anyone suffers like I do, or you don't suffer at all, then post replys here...

There are no pop-ups at Tolkien Trail or Entmoot that I have installed. If you see any, some spyware program like Kazaa must've put them there.

I hate pop-up adds! But my dad won't let me install one. Because he is programming one and my computer is going to be the tester.

Gah! @#$%^&*! popups!
Must see if I can get Mom to let me install the pop-up blocker.
