It's like the time when every time you tried to visit a certain topic it would automatically transfer you to that shitty UGO gaming site all over again... I think I just stumbled on a possible plot if Kaiser ever wants to make a CIF4. 0 Share this post Link to post

gggmork Posted October 17, 2008 Someone recommended firefox's adblock plus plugin and it killed the popups here for me. 0 Share this post Link to post

Enjay Posted October 17, 2008 kristus said:hostsman That's what I use (on your recommendation). However, I've noticed 2 minor annoyances with it (which I could probably solve if I could be bothered): 1: On the Doomworld forum, if I want to go back to a previous page, I have to press the back button twice instead of once (doesn't happen on any other site that I visit). 2: When I use a Google search, the "sponsored ad" links at the top of the page take me to a "page not found" even though the same page in a non-sponsored link works. When I first installed it, it blocked a few sites that I visit. I can't see any good reason for those sites to be blocked, but it was easy to remove blocking for them so it doesn't matter. 0 Share this post Link to post
40oz Posted October 17, 2008 Dreadopp said:I keep getting that silly pop-up here on Doom World. Good. If I was the only one seeing it then I was sure this thread would be helled. But David Hasselhoff nonetheless, Didn't one of the Anaconda movies have Ice cube in it? Is this basically a series of horror/thriller movies with guest appearances that the majority of people recognize? 0 Share this post Link to post

kristus Posted October 17, 2008 @Enjay: 1, not sure what is up with that. Never experienced it. Though I rarely use the back button on DW. 2. Sometimes I've experienced this too. Though I can't right now for the life of me get a google hit with a sponsored link that doesn't work to test it with. :p It blocked Myspace from me as I installed it. Myspace had a lot of strange subdomains so it took a little bit of effort to weed through that to get it working again. But other than that it has never been any problems with this. What is really nice with it IMO, is that it entirely stops the trash from ever reaching your computer. 0 Share this post Link to post

Has to do with the fucked up way Internet Explorer handles iframes. It's complicated. :p Using another browser will eliminate this issue. Enjay said:2: When I use a Google search, the "sponsored ad" links at the top of the page take me to a "page not found" even though the same page in a non-sponsored link works. That's because it forwards you to a blocked ad site before it sends you off to the site you're wanting to go to. It's how the ad company keeps track of click-throughs and what company B (where you're going) owes company A (where you're coming from). 0 Share this post Link to post
SYS Posted October 18, 2008 Just when you've seen it all. It was shot in Romania back to back with a 4th one. WTF? There's no other way of explaining this other than a producer having to launder alot of money. 0 Share this post Link to post

Peanut Posted October 18, 2008 Anaconda 3 in a nut shell. Poor bastards get lost in swamp. Big snake appears. Big snake eats 90% of poor bastards. Last survivors haul ass. Last minute plot device. There's your movie. 0 Share this post Link to post
Richo Rosai Posted October 18, 2008 Finally got it. At first, I thought there was really a fucking snake coming at me breaking through my screen and then that drunk guy with a gun. But then I remembered that's unpossible, which made me even more pumped to see this movie. Those advertisers are jeanyuses. nightmare93 said:Anaconda 3 in a nut shell.

Enjay Posted October 18, 2008 Nuxius said:hostman explanations Thanks, I thought that it was probably something like that going on. It's not a huge inconvenience to me anyway, not as much as what it blocks would be, but at least I now know why it happens. Butts said:i really hate these pop-ups... i just started getting them i think yesterday, and they come up unpredictably and redirects me to a page to the ridiculous movie when i click on a thread. Doomworld has, periodically had annoying popups like that on it for years. I never see them these days, and haven't for a long time, but it's just one of those things that the hosts do to get their money. It's just as well that they are pretty easy to avoid because they are bad enough that they would actually limit the number of times I visit here - which is surely counter-productive? [edit]Heh, looking at John Rhys-Davies' filmography on IMDB he looks like one of those actors who don't know how to say no. He has been in some really top-notch, high profile movies but he's also been in a lot, and I mean a lot, of shit. I guess it all pays the bills. [/edit] 0 Share this post Link to post
Kyka Posted October 18, 2008 I was editing one of my posts, and even there, guess who should pop up but David Hasselhoff. With that terrible pose. At least he didn't turn up while I was typing this one. 0 Share this post Link to post
40oz Posted October 18, 2008 In a way, i kinda like these ads, since they show up before they show up on commercials, and most of the time the movies they advertise are pretty good. I think Pineapple Express was the latest one; I went out to see it and it's gotta be one of the best movies I'd ever seen. EDIT: I was just kinda reminded that I remember a while ago seeing a video of David Hasselhoff being totally intoxicated, due to having an alcohol addiction. I haven't really heard much of him since his guest appearance for about 10 seconds of the Spongebob Movie. I haven't done any research on him but I'm actually pretty surprised to see him being the star of this movie. I kinda figured his acting career was on the seat of a rehabilitation center since then. 0 Share this post Link to post

I thought I needed therapy. ... oh, there's the ad. sheesh, it follows me. The Hoff is following my scroll buttons! In all seriousness, I just did some research on the movie, and.. The Snake in this one is really fucked up. Go look yourself if you're determined to avoid this one. 0 Share this post Link to post
