Pop-unders are back

Those pesky pop-under ads are back. After switching to Firefox, it was so nice never having to see pop-up/under ads anymore. But someone’s figured out a way around Firefox’s pop-up/under ad blocking and now they’re polluting my eyeballs again.

Argh.

So far only one website I (used to) visit on a regular basis (which I won’t be anymore) has these new pop-up ads. Web advertising has become one of those necessary evils. I can live with ads plastered all over a website (obviously the less obtrusive and annoying, the better), but making ads pop up windows all over my screen like weeds is a guaranteed way of driving my eyeballs away from a site. I’m sure the same goes for many other geeks too.

Pop-up ads…just say no.
