Forgive me, I'm not sure where this thread should go.
Can we please get rid of the Drew Breeze ad at the bottom of every ORG forum page? It's one of the few ads that include audio but do not have it muted by default. I'm really tired of hearing "...PLAY! Hi kids, I'm Drew Breeze..." every time I open up a page.
i have my computer muted by default, unless i am doing something like a game that requires sound. so not a problem for me :)
:hanged:
It's not something the .org can fix for you. I don't even get them because I get different ads because I'm Dutch.
But there are a legion of apps that can block ads for you. Firefox has several plugins for that very purpose.
Adblock or NoScript for Firefox will kill it. NoScript requires a little time to get used to, but for me it's second nature now.
Wishes he had the power to make this go to the Watchtower...and awaaaay!
Very annoying ad but I too usually browse with the speakers off.
Wish granted...Quote:

If you're still on IE7 like I am, you can use IE7pro.
Guys, really, like Alexander said, AdBlockPlus & Firefox. If you are still using IE, then stop being a dinosaur/Pikachu and evolve! :laugh4:
And don't evolve from IE7 to IE8!:wall: That is a horrible mistake.:no: It's still a BETA and during the short time I used it surfing the net it was unbearable. Using IE gave me lots of tracking cookies as well.... I recommend either Opera of Firefox.:yes:Quote:

Looks like he had a good day today :laugh4:
Nah, IE8 is more like going from Pikachu to Pichu :no:Quote:

Orr, you could just use Firefox.
I caught Firefox connecting to paypal (which I have never ever used) and some ad companies while I was browsing the internet - Opera it is for me, it is the most secure browser I have ever seen.:yes:
Hah! You all simply don't understand how to use this great browser!
