It's very simple people - when things like gator, and comet cursors pop up - just don't accept them! lol They can't get installed on your computer unless you say yes! And I know this because I just had to have a chat with my 12 year old about accepting Gator, comet cursors and xupiter search on my computer. Renderosity has no control over what individuals have on their private web sites. Perhaps these ads and pop-ups continue to allow Tim to offer these goodies to the poser community for FREE. If you don't like ads and pop-ups then just don't freaking go there!!! But please don't bitch and moan and spoil it for the rest of us! It'll be really great when no one offers free stuff anymore because of all the whiners and bandwidth leechers.
