Marshal Phil DeGrave SASS #55202 0 Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Well, I guess I will have to eat my words. Did you see the advertising area? It has China Love as a sponsor, just like the "Good Ol Days" Now the lonely cowboys can order up a Chinese bride and have her shipped over to the ranch right pronto. Cabin Fever now has a cure.

Driftwood Johnson, SASS #38283 1,042 Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Howdy I was on line on the Wire at the library the other day and I noticed those annoying ads. I do not get them at home on my own PC. Perhaps a pop up blocker will help remove them? Link to post Share on other sites

I think your pop-up theory has some merit. Link to post Share on other sites
Utah Bob #35998 15,861 Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 I don't spend any time at all looking at the ads. Don't care what's on 'em. Link to post Share on other sites

Guess I've changed some with the times. Days past I would have objected to the outsider ads. Now-a-days, seems to me that if "dipstikskivviesdotcom" or "eyebeestupiddotcom" want to spend money that ends up paying for the wire to even a small extent, AND I don't HAVE to read their copy (see the NYTimes web site, for example) then it's fine with me. Course, mebbe the popup blocker of Firefox is doing its job well and I just don't see 'em neither. So, should we have a cross on the ad space....an, would it be a Rebel cross or a Bluebelly cross.... Ducking! Link to post Share on other sites
Badlands Beady 61 Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 I think you can block the ads, yourself. It's been a while since I tried it, but it goes something like this: At the top of your browser, click on the Tools button, then on Internet Options. Click on the Security tab, then Restricted Sites. Enter the basic URL of the ad. That should block everything from coming from that ad provider. Example: Entering http://sassnet.com/forums would block the forums, but allow everything else on the SASS site. Entering http://sassnet.com would block everything coming from SASS. I learned this trick during a discussion of how to speed up your browser's loading time. A lot of the time it's the ads that cause a web page to take forever to appear; if you block the sites that the ads are coming from, the page won't try to load them. Link to post Share on other sites
