  • YEP I agree with this poster. The ads are driving me nuts. I don't mind seeing them on the side, but that Walgreens one opens every chance I move up to select something and the Nissan one opens from the side and doesn't close at all while covering half the screen!

  • I already sent them a complaint about one that kept freezing up my phone and computer. You can do the same! Just go to the contact us link at the bottom.

  • My Norton anti-virus told me I possibly picked up a "Trojan Horse" from one of these pop ups

  • I am so disgusted with all the flyout ads ... the ones that roll out when you hit them with the cursor. That "Got Milk" ad almost made me lose my freakin mind!

    Another thing that I found incredibly annoying: I was playing a timed card game and a survey ad popped up in the middle of my screen! WTH? I was playing a game and the timer was counting down, but I had to stop and click the ad off my screen so I could continue the game! :::grumble:::
