Got spare money?

I've been noticing annoying Pogo ads on this computer. They keep popping up while I post, so I have to keep closing them.

I think we should stop feeling sorry for all those *s stupid enough to still use IE when browsing the net. I mean, how often can you walk into the same wall?

Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

It's not just IE. There must be something in the code of the Apolyton page, too. I only get this Cydoor stuff when browsing Apolyton! That can't be a coincidence, can it?

I found this bit of code on the page I was browsing that seems to call up a pop-up window:

< script src="http://www.burstnet.com/cgi-bin/ads/ad10371a.cgi/sz=0X0MN/v=1.1Y/618482/RETURN-CODE/JS/">< /script>

I don't actually get the pop-up when I have my pop-up blocker on, but maybe the Cydoor ad somehow comes along with this window?

Just a link in a script tag? How does that work?

Not sure, but if I copy the page and remove the link, it gets a bit better.

"Script src" defines a URL to a file that contains the script (instead of inserting the script into your HTML document, you can refer to a file that contains the script). It works the same way as referring to an image on another server with the "img src" tag.

But I wonder why the code is in the page in the first place. Someone mustīve put it there. And if itīs not Markos I donīt know who it could be...
