I feel bad for these poor people that never learn about AdBlock Plus plugin.
It's free
Works in Firefox and better yet...Chrome.
Blocks ads
The site navigates very quickly because of ..."less ads"
I don't get a headache from viewing lots of ads...keeps the site from looking like I'm driving down las vegas at night.
I'm less likely to trip across malware that can come in through ad streams.

Yup...AdBlock Plus!

I dont understand how people can complain about the ads on here. There are very simple options that totally clear out the ads. Even the stupid Vibrant advertising that jumps out at you when you mouse over it can be disabled in its own window very simply. No offense but if you cant figure out a way around the simple **** dont let the world know.

There is something he isn't telling us. Every time I go on a site with adds it always sows adds related(or so they think it is) to what my previous searches are. Some times I'll get on here and I have adds for cycle parts and sometimes its hunting and fishing stuff.

Fair enough and it wasnt directly aimed at you...just go look in the forum issues section sometime, lots of gripes about ads. Pet peeve I guess.

Regards lol
