What is going on? The site managers need to look into what ads they are allowing on the site. This is disturbing.

I've had a problem that I think is coming from this site as well. To the point I hesitate coming in here. Freezes me up, and then a short while later I get
a Pop up from Zedo that somehow gets through my filters.

Zedo powered pop ups, the real un-american evil doers.

right after that last post, it froze up again. I let it sit and eventually it loaded Yahoo hot jobs.
Something is wacked.

The GopherHole administration does not believe that faking one's death, repeatedly lying about the issue, insulting those
who suggested that it may be a prank, and emotionally impacting those in our community is an appropriate joke/prank.

My computer has been locking up also. I'll have to look at firefox since buying a mac is not an option right now.

Firefox + Adblocker + Norton Anti-Virus = Virus Free surfing.
My last computer got absolutely ravaged by trojans and viruses. Long story short, $600 later my new machine is much more pleasant to surf with.
