Use firefox with addblocker plus with easyEliment+easy list subscription and you will never see an add again. text/html 2007-10-15T09:05:54-05:00 Shadow_Ops_Airman1 http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/67828/?l=1#514240 wow suprised this reappeared, anyways, ya ive been using Firefox as Primary Browser, but question what is IE7 Pro? Ive also emailed the Creator of No Script about making a Add-on like the one in Firefox but for IE7 setup the same way n all. text/html 2007-10-15T08:46:39-05:00 Jules http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/67828/?l=1#514238 Yes - I get fed up with the popups that happen too, when you go to replu to a post. Have to set my IE popup blocker to &quot;Block all Popups&quot; when lurking on this site. Are they really necessary Sander.? text/html 2007-10-01T23:15:49-05:00 Vitaliy (Administrator) http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/67828/?l=1#512468 bot said: <div class="quote">coming to the site always places a tribalfusion cookie thou.<br /> it's a cookie for behavioral, contextual, demographic targeting and tracking.<br /> don't like it and since i have anything blocked on my firewall that has to do with it,<br /> the site loads slower. </div><br /> I'm not going to argue with people's opinion on cookies and tracking since most people already made up their mind on it.<br /> <br /> But I would point out is that one of the things these cookies are used for is to insure that you don't see the same [annoying] ads too many times. text/html 2007-10-01T20:42:15-05:00 BoT http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/67828/?l=1#512461 coming to the site always places a tribalfusion cookie thou.<br /> it's a cookie for behavioral, contextual, demographic targeting and tracking.<br /> don't like it and since i have anything blocked on my firewall that has to do with it,<br /> the site loads slower. text/html 2007-10-01T20:29:18-05:00 FordGT90Concept http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/67828/?l=1#512458 That particular Skip Ad... thing was removed as the result of a recent discussion in the suggestions thread. text/html 2007-10-01T19:05:11-05:00 A_Pickle http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/67828/?l=1#512448 I feel it's worth mentioning that a lot of websites make their dues on ad-generated revenue. Just having an ad pop up onscreen can generate money for a site (depending on the type of ad), and so... it doesn't much behoove any of us to employ ad-blockers for a site we all enjoy and frequent. Also, a lot of sites (not sure if HWA is one of them) have it against their Terms of Service to discuss and encourage the use of ad-blocking software.<br /> <br /> Unless the ads are just bugging intrusive, like that bloody &quot;Skip Ad&quot; bulls**t that's relatively new. That needs to go, as do the damn popups. &gt;:[ text/html 2007-07-19T16:35:27-05:00 john albrich http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/67828/?l=1#502141 I just checked on my base test machine running Firefox with NO extensions...no pop-ups such as the ones you described.<br /> <br /> However, that machine does run Ad-Aware SE once a week. text/html 2007-07-19T01:49:15-05:00 McFly http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/67828/?l=1#502072 Yeah, I don't think I'm actually RIPing anything on HWA. text/html 2007-07-19T00:31:15-05:00 Adam Kolak http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/67828/?l=1#502064 In Firefox with just Adblock and my personal ad filter list I get no ads on 99% of websites including this one. In IE7 with IE7pro I get no ads with the same ad filter list. I always install IE7pro and Firefox with adblock, both with my personal ad filter list on all my machines. Works wonders, blocks everything you don't want to see and nothing you do want to see. text/html 2007-07-19T00:01:21-05:00 Rory Witham http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/67828/?l=1#502054 see that the other day.. went back on and there was no issues..<br /> <br /> Its been like that on here for a while where sander changes the stuff around. search the forum... it was worse that that on here at one point a few years ago text/html 2007-07-18T23:32:56-05:00 CrAsHnBuRnXp http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/67828/?l=1#502045 McFly,<br /> <br /> Mine looks like that with just No Script. text/html 2007-07-18T23:21:55-05:00 McFly http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/67828/?l=1#502043 HWA is lovely with Adblock, RIP and NoScript:<br /> <a class="ext" href="/action/r/http://img102.imageshack.us/img102/4968/untitledvi1.jpg" target="_blank">http://img102.imageshack.us/img102/4968/untitledvi1.jpg</a><br /> <br /> <img src="http://media.hardwareanalysis.com/smilies/smile8.gif" width="14" height="14" border="0" alt=":_)" title=":_)"> text/html 2007-07-18T23:21:30-05:00 Liquid Shadow http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/67828/?l=1#502042 I don't see any ads in Firefox either. text/html 2007-07-18T23:13:29-05:00 Sean Costello http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/67828/?l=1#502040 i don't see any ads on IE7 with IE7pro.<br /> <br /> Just get add ons to get rid of them.
