It seems to be similar to the telemarketing. Theres always ways around advertising blockers. It sucks and even worse theres nothing you can do. Im sure everyone has installed popup blocker to avoid ads that slow the loading of pages. So instead of popups they put it directly in the page. Just like telemarketers cant call to advertise a new product BUT if you have a credit card or something with them or an affiliate you get swamped with calls. I checked an auto insurance quoterecently and now Im getting 5 calls everyday trying to sell me auto insurance. [:@][:@][:@]

You know what I'm going to click one just to see what happens, I choose the duck hunt one!!! If you don't hear from me in a couple of days, you'll know not to click the ad's


Well that was quick...Duck Hunt equals Spyware...it asks you to download some file which in my experience as computer specialist is a big NO! NO! I chose not to install...so in conclusion, online ad's those equal crap and shouldn't be clicked, unless you make money off them, in that case click away
