boogie, an easy way to get rid of the pop up ads is to pay for a membership. Many have chosen to pay for membership with cash while others who are using the service for "free", are paying for this free service by having to put up with pop up ads. Remember nothing in life is free and that is true of this site, it is just a matter of how you pay for it. You have chosen to pay for these services by putting up with annoying pop up ads, with all the complaining going on about the pop up's, I am glad I chose to pay for my membership the old fashioned way, with cash.
