DJL 232 #1 December 12, 2002 Just in case any of you see that pop-up that said it'll find porn on your computer, don't click on it. It's fake. It doesn't actually help you find porn and that chick doesn't get naked. Yeah, what the fuck? -Doug"I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chivo 0 #4 December 12, 2002 If you use Netscape or IE, you can use Proxomitron(http://www.proxomitron.org) or Privoxy (http://www.privoxy.org/) to avoid all those pop-ups... also banners, some javascript, etc. I personally use Proxomitron... it kickz azz! ~Chivo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pack40 0 #7 December 12, 2002 Opera is the best for 11 megabytes you get better performance than Netscape or IE. And only like 0.5% of the webpages do not like Opera. And it is free, although I do not usually (never) pay for softwares I leave that to the rich, capitalist Americans. Little Billy Gates will never see even a cent from me.
