iHub 2.0 Feedback

[was johndough]

The new beta site and the old site are frauds.

Today at the new beta site and the old site for that matter, I could not post new messages, read or send mail, or read unread posts. I did what you recommended if one has problems, I added investorshub.advfn.com and advfn.com as allowed/exceptions to Firefox and Zonealarm. I also had to use javascript.

Big mistake to the user. Doing so allows the below listed companies and others to sneak through your advfn.com connection to my computer (I watched because they are otherwise blocked on my machine). In addition, the two googles and the quantserve require mandatory cookies to read or post messages/mail.

usas1.advfn.com/oasis/oasisi.php?s=
pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js
http://edge.quantserve.com/quant.js
google-analytics.com

Drop the these companies. They are the worst spammers and anti-consumer data collectors on the web. And, drop the mandatory javascript. Javascript is so dangerous that one of the above companies installed a bullwinkle gif without warning or permission on another page of my browser. I was helpless.

By the way, I am totally open in my adsoff, firefox and zonealarm programs to post this message. I will not make this mistake again.
