I don't get any pop up ads if I sign in...if I just LOOK at the site and don't sign in...oh boy, it's crazy!
Mudslinging isn't bad per se, I just don't want Cotty and Naug polluting it...that's what HP is for, right? I guess I should restate that on the site and have it addressed to them, LOL!
AND, if you install pop-up stopper (free from panicware.com), it helps tremendously in eliminating virtually all pop ups and pop unders...I highly recommend it!
