Has anyone else been seeing ads for Windows XP / MovieMaker on the boards? Do we really need these?

We have no control over the ads displayed.

Blame SlapTech.

Yes, it is quite ironic. Or maybe moronic. One of those.

When you see them, give them a click, and cost MS a cent or two. ;)

Does it really matter? I know for the most part I've always ignored the ads.

I block ads in OmniWeb; so, I usually forget and don't even realize that we HAVE ads.

For some reason many ads, not all, don't load on my computer. The ones that do, I wish hadn't. PC ads on a Mac site is not that bad but why? Kinda funny sometimes on the many anti-microsoft topics. But all the offensive crap from the Ad council... :eek: Hate to break it to you, but that is the #1 reason I am visiting less and less. <img src="graemlins/oyvey.gif" border="0" alt="[No]" /> :(

Wait the only ad we have is the one at the top under the forums | IRC chat yadi yadi navbar right? Or is there popups? I have them blocked so I don`t know.
