I don’t see anything but your stuff anyway, so I think I’m safe.

Am I safe? Never assume. 🙂

You must be running an ad blocker. The links are in the left sidebar, underneath the restesing weasel.

Needless to say, this was not much of a money spinner.

You mean it would have helped you if I’d clicked on those,

Russian Girls want to have your baby TONIGHT! links?

Now she tells me… I could have told Mrs. Vegetable that I was just doing it for an old friend…. or something.

(1) As Phineas Taylor Barnum would say . . .

(2) ” And I don’t understand why papers like the Post and the Times weren’t up in arms about the hit to their reputation.”
Hit to their reputations?!!! LOL. I bet they hardly noticed.

Actually, I prefer your version….

oh, yeah, I see the links now. I had to (temp) allow adbrite in NoScript. Man, I guess I’ve been missin’ out.

Okay dokay…but what about them chickens…they coom out yet?

I saw this ad somewhere today. I have never clicked on it. I’m surprised you did, Ms Wez.

…and tiny url(s)…
There’s a blog I read, because I have too much time on my hands, that reduces all it’s links to tiny urls. You don’t know where you are going with one of those links, and you don’t know what you are going to get.

The way politics is being played right now, clicking on a link can get you hacked. And my anti-virus program is being triggered ‘way too often. I’m suspecting ad servers.

The internet has become a very dangerous place.

Skandia… go to tinyurl.com/preview.php
Turn that sucker on.
It gives you the final destination. Then asks if you want to proceed to this site.
You can look before you click.
On Ace’s site, well, it’s a good thing.

Check out the ads on Fox News or on some of the “Bigs” in the blogoshpere, like Power Line. Complete crap. Okay, I can kinda understand it on Fox, because it’s “one of those ‘for profit’ deals.” But why in hell 3 apparently successful lawyers need to trash up their site (Power Line) for lunch money is beyond me.

I’ve seen this ad at various times in internetland. Never felt any need to click on it though, since my belly is like the road surface approaching a roundabout.

It was all in the interest of science, Pat. And I was using my Linux laptop, so I didn’t think I was in much danger (worst case, I wipe the whole computer and start again).

I know, Mike. I know everyone’s desperate to make some coin with this here internet thing, but those Google ads so bring down the tone of a website.

Have you all noticed a new-found sense of…desperation about web ads? I mean, NRO does sneaky Netflix popunders. HotAir (and others) doing that thing where your screen suddenly goes dark and then a sign-up app appears in the middle of the screen (this always annoys me, because I usually have my hands wrapped around a cup of coffee, happily reading, when the daggone things pop up). Oh, and we’ve seen a return of the annoying trembly spastic ads (there’s one that pops up in rotation at Ace’s now).

Oh, I’m also getting shit-tons of low rent commercial mail via people like NRO and the Weekly Standard whose newsletters I signed up for.

“HotAir (and others) doing that thing where your screen suddenly goes dark and then a sign-up app appears in the middle of the screen …”

I always imagine it is Allahpundit in the ad. It certainly resembles his depiction in the infamous Taiwanese News video they did on HotAir.

I don’t think my Russian hooker ever arrived. Possibly lost in the post. Could you send another?

Been on the ‘net so much, my brain has developed it’s own ad blocker. Rarely see ’em at all unless they’re goofy/funny popups.
Didn’t even notice the G-Ads on this site until you pointed them out.

I know waaaay too much about web ads. I used to sell my soul to a company that hosted ads, it was how they made money. The free service they offered the outside world drove eyeballs to the ads. (Never forget, children, if it’s “free” YOU are the product.) Anyway, the ad thingies work very much like a Chinese supply network. Ad service A has a little space it hasn’t sold personally, so they sell it cut rate to ad service B, who does the same thing and pretty soon you get to ad service Z that sells text ad space to Nigerian princes for a few chickens. Somewhere between A and Z *somebody* doesn’t check submitted ads for embedded code exploits, or unfinished php tags, or links to a virus server, and all hell breaks loose. Which is why I adblock. I am happy to send monies via PayPal to sites I like that need the moola, but I will NOT view your ads. Sorry. I hate the taste of melamine.

You can still see the “one trick” ads out there, its all sad stuff. There’s some lousy advertising out there and you can always spot the ones you can’t trust.

I’m like AltBBrown, I don’t even see ads most of the time, plus I have so much security set up on Firefox, it scrubs nearly every advertisement off all pages.

Ignoring the advertising? Why, that’s downright UNAMERICAN!

You MUST accept the programming your betters have arranged for you, at great expense. Yours.

I miss advertising. I live in England. Now, how’m I supposed to know when something’s new and improved?

They don’t advertise in England?

It’s ALWAYS “new and improved!” (exclamation mark required), whatever it is.

You should know that.

Noticeably less, Can’t hark. Most of the TV and radio we consume is BBC, so no advertising. And they are far fewer things like billboards.

Also, when we watch pre-recorded TV on commercial channels, Uncle B fast forwards right past the ads. I blame an impoverished upbringing.

No adverts on the BBC? Well, except for the loving tongue-bath the latest lefty craze inevitably gets, anyway…

I download everything off the internet I want to watch on to a usb drive and watch them on my television. Therefore, no commercials.

@ Wez…Oh, I’m also getting shit-tons of low rent commercial mail…

I set up an addy on a sub-domain with a low storage limit for signups and commenting…when it reaches the limit I sweep it out.

I’ve used AdBlock for years. One of these days I’m going to learn GreaseMonkey in earnest, and then all these pop-up excrescences will be gone. I already have a bash shell script that scrubs Firefox’s sqlite3 cookie database to get round the annoying (and badly-coded) Daily Telegraph paywall. It’s amazing what you can do when you know some of the tricks.

The Telegraph is behind a paywall? Since when?

They have an article limit of 20-30 per month and then the shutters come down and they try to flog you a subscription. It’s piss-easy to circumvent: just kill all cookies with base domain *telegraph*. You can do this manually, but in Firefox (on Linux and Mac, anyway) it’s easier to just zap them directly in the cookies file: sqlite3 -line <path to cookies file>* “delete from moz_cookies where baseDomain like ‘%telegraph%’;” from a terminal window. I imagine a similar sort of thing is doable in Windows, although probably with more grunting and squealing.

* which is usually something like ~/.mozilla/firefox/43x8qrch.default/cookies.sqlite

js whitelisting is your friend.

I mean, most of the useful stuff on the web is text, most of the rest: pictures, & if a site requires js to see the pictures or the text, then it’s probably not important enough for me to look at.

The Daily Telegraph website is still free to users in the UK. The paywall for non-UK users was introduced in November 2012.

I find that the New York Times paywall (which kicks in after only 10 articles in any month) is easy to get round. I simply copy some of the text of any item on the home page (or one of the indexes) and then Google it. Works 90% of the time. Maybe that will work for the Telegraph.

But I believe with all my heart that the cycle of
yo-yo size 0 dieting is evident. Whole foods contain more nutrition
and fiber and require more energy for the body to burn
fat.

My relatives all the time say tgat I am killing my time here at net,however
I know I am getting experience every day by reading such nice articles
or reviews.

Pretty! This was an extremely wonderful post. Thank you for providing this
info.

I think this is among the most significant info for me.

And i am glad reading your article. But should remark
on few general things, The web site style is perfect, the articles is really excellent
: D. Good job, cheers

I pay a quick visit daily some websites and blogs to read content, except this website provides feature based articles.

What makes Blu-ray special is it has a much larger capacity to

Most of the card dealers sell their cards online through websites that specialize

Great information. Lucky me I ran across your
