I logged on and clicked a link and was taken to this. I'm not advantage, but I was wondering if anyone else has seen this. It's the first time I've even seen anything like this, and I've been here for a few months now.

I guess you gotta pay the bills, but isn't this a little extreme? You can see in the pic I had 9 seconds before it redirected, but I was on my uncles laptop, so it took me at least 10 seconds to find the print screen button.

So I was wondering if anyone else has seen this. This isn't on advantage right? 'Cause I was thinking about taking the plunge, but idk if these ads are there.

I get this tribel fussion too... remember what I told you Scion? about why I got advantage? well this is exactly what I was talking about.

you get this with advantage it doesn't matter... I think I had this discussion with Scion and he told me to make sure I had pop up blockers on to prevent this... It is very annoying

glad to see i'm not the only one one way i've found to get around it is to close the block up tab and hit refresh before clicking back on the psc screen

I've never seen these (or the red rash), but I'm on a mac and Netscape - or sometimes Safari-which has popup controls.

I'm Advantaged and I run Firefox. I don't see those pop-ups or any other ads. Cool

Plus there's other ways of blocking this type of stuff if you use Firefox.

When I got tired of complaining about PSC ads (and I complained a lot) I added the Adblock Plus Extension to Firefox - haven't had a single ad since
