OT: Unclever...Ads


I run a program named AdSubstract to block all popups and ads.
It will also block cookies. It automatically keeps statistics on what it blocks and where they are coming from. Since I last reset the meters, I have blocked 181 ads from IHUB.

It also blocks Double Click and others. Ebay will download cookies and since most of these blocking programs only block once per site visit, Ebay would send a duplicate cookie up to as many as 8 tries. AdSubstract would block everyone. The program lets you see the war going on behind your computer screen.

Remember, draining the swamp to get rid of alligators, will stir up the snakes.
