    Google!!!!!!

    Does open for you an advertising popup when searching with Google? If really Google placed popups , it really sucks.

    I got a popup from them yesterday. It looks like it;s a popup that pops up once every 24 hours.

    too bad.
    although i'm frankly impressed that they've gotten along this far without advertising.

    I haven't seen one yet. Horrors.
    They do have ads Robin. Only more tastefully placed than Yahoo's. Or rather they sell keywords but don't mix the ads with the actual hits.

    Oh right, the keywords. Well, they're not ugly and they don't blink so I don't notice them

    Google is a good website. I use it all the time. What's a pop up? Never had one.

    Yes it's horrible! Something must be done. I suggest more rules. I get dizzy when there aren't clear...rules...for...everything...

    I want my posts to count for random meaningless posts that have some sort of general "shoot the breeze" stopics!!

    OH and to stay on the topic.. besides google (haven't seen popups there) have you seen EVERY OTHER place on the web adopt pop-behinds? they're evil!!

    That's the same as pop-under? They are bad! Most guys here seem to like them thought. The only thing worse is pop-afters.
