Re: You see...
GCSNet claimed to have great plans for making money that would enable them to never close down. But they did.
Like I said the other day, soon everything free will be dead or turned into a pay service.
This personal bar can kiss my a**. I uninstalled IE6 only to discover Outlook in now corrupted. I had to reinstall it to get access to my e-mails :(. Damn Micro$oft...

I tried to register the origional 2 IP's under a different name, and it gave me an error saying I need to use unique ones. I assume this is because I already have them registered under a different name.

Maybe an exit pop up opened once a day used in conjunction with a search box? Would that be acceptable? Also, your saying $15 a month per user, but I'm contemplating offer the same package, without the banners for $5 a month. This would make me profit, so I could afford to host sites that don't...
Okay, I've been testing systems and I now have an effective way of offering the following:
1. Pop up once per 24 hours (won't spawn more)
2. Pop behind once per 24 hours (won't spawn more)
3. Exit pop up once per 24 hours (won't spawn more)
4. Ad bar (across the top of page with 3 text...
