some sites are dependend on banner ads so I don't think it's fair blocking them unless they are taking over the site. If a site bothers you, just don't go there. ------------- http://baumannphoto.com" rel="nofollow - Blog | http://mpgtracker.com" rel="nofollow - MPG Tracker |

No its not. YOU VISITED THE SITE. YOU MADE THE CHOICE. There is a difference. SPAM is unsolicited email that you have NO CHOICE in receiving. ------------- There have been many, many posts made throughout the world... This was one of them. |
