Okay, FF.Net- 

Never liked the popups that have been popping up for quite some time now. But, Jesus, now they're appearing while I'm reading stories. To show my feelings about this, let me just say: having to click "skip this ad" and enabling ad blocker (even though it still does not always work for me) is not exactly my cup of tea.

Not very happy right now,

Now stuff is getting past their ad-blocker? That's bad form if they can't keep stuff out, especially if it is getting in the way of people actually reading the site's content.

I know you're not specifically asking for suggestions, but...if you have Internet Explorer 7, its pop-up blocker does seem to do a good job of keeping out pop-ups.

And Firefox has Adblock Plus and Adblock Elements which seem to be very good at allowing you to block ads from particular pages and letting you select the bits you want to block. Might be of some use to you, perhaps?

But in terms of FF.net's ads, that does seem very annoying. I remember when I used to access FF.net at college, when the computers might have well had no ad-block at all - so I'd get those multiple windows popping up all over the place. Very annoying.
