Pop UPs...
- Thread starter mat
- Start date
They are not supposed to be in there since we are not supposed to be on a pop-up/under scheme. I'll have to shout at the advertisers...

yes...
but they have a good site too... they made me consider switching from IE6 to Mozilla (with its built in Pop Up Blocker)
Because of the Pop-Up's I use the Opera 5.12 at home. The only drawback is that many sites uses javascript which does not work together with the Opera ( apparently optimised for IE5.X
)
I've sent a mail to of ad agency asking whats going on, but to no responce yet. It seems that the pop-up only occurs one so if you kill the fitst on that come up it shouldn't happen again during that session at B3D (I think).
yes... but i like Beyond3d and using webwasher cuts of (some of?) their income.
and webwasher block to many pop ups. (last time i used it it blocked some links i wanted to (tecchanel.de has the images as pop Ups which were also blocked))
I try mozilla now... looks quite good.. blocks anoying ads and nothing else

If you like IE6, use Crazy Browser--it has a built-in pop-up blocker, and it stops that annoying "bring window to front" effect sites like Gaming-Age.com have. It leaves all other ads intact. CrazyBrowser.com. I think NetCaptor does the same thing, but I tried CB first, and I'm happy with it.
I´m sorry to say it so drastically, but these new pop-ups are a pain in the a**. For every single window i opened i got a popup. (To make thinks worse, i disabled ActiveX which leads to an iexplorer popup saying that the security settings do not allow -%blubbblablubb%-. Therefore i have to close two windows every new click on a thread.
Perhaps a choice would be great : A subscriber-only B3D that does not have ads of any kind and the current one.
As it is, I have no real complaints about the pop-ups (perhaps I'm not as easily irritated... there are many things I do get irritated about but pop-up ads on websites is definitely not one of them). At least B3D isn't PCIGN.com !

As I just said in another thread we've not changed anything with our advertisers, so I don't know whats happening - all I can do is put a request in to their support; they may have some rougecode in there or something. The other issue is that it doesn't appear to be as bad for everyone - I'm not getting any at all at the moment (perhaps others are getting mine! ).
As for a subscriber service, yes, I had this same idea last night. However it could only be implemented when we have the new backend in.

I usually get one pop-under (its hides itself rather than show up) and I leave it there until I leave. If I close the window it usually comes back on the next page I visit. The trick is to keep that first one open. Some people might have browser issues (javascript or other disabled) resulting in the script failing to recognise that you already had a pop-up/under or the ad server has some bogus code.
