tradivoro - first I didn't critisize the site, I merely stated it would have been nice to know about the pop ups in advance. I appreciate anyone who is willing to share knowledge, but how difficult it is to get to the knowledge and based on what it is, determines whether or not I feel it's worth it for me to go and get it. And I have a huge problem with pop ups and usually avoid sites with them on there. But in this case, I didn't know about them until after I got there, so how could I have avoided it? I will not buy from pop up ads because I feel that type of advertising is beyond annoying. Spyware is something that has been hurting my company (Fortune 100 company) big time. People are losing days of productivity because they get a pop up when going to a site that they believe they need to access the site. It's not until after that it's on their machine they discover it's spyware. Usually most products you can get rid of, but there have been cases when the machine has had to be wiped and reimaged. So, again, I merely requested that when posting the link a little heads up like, "Oh my site uses pop up ads" would have been nice.
