Adwords... god I hate them

Has anyone else noticed the latest addition of addwords to the forum... There has to be some script running in the background picking specific words out of our posts and linking them to a product advertisement.

They are the green words that are doulbe underlined.

Just irritating as all hell....

you guys just need to use another browser that doesn't support that and like 90% of bad pop ups ....

something like opera ... there' is nothing restricted in that ... do you ever remember wanting a picture but when ever you right click it tells you that you cannot do anything? Well with this browser its not compatible with like most of the codes that they write, its alot faster and neater i think, alot more mouse jesture which speed up the process of browsing through forums lets say (more 7 info in less time ) lol

Sure thing ...

Advertising is annoying, period. Having to pay bills is annoying, living in a society based on a monetary system is annoying. Somebody change the world and I'll get rid of all the ads ... fair enough?

The ads could be MUCH more annoying, like many many other sites on the net. This is as intrusive as I'll allow on my sites. So just keep enjoying, after a few minutes you don't even notice the links.
