This ad crashes my computer. It brings 3 or 4 other popups with it, its been increasing in frequency, and there about a 1/3 chance that ALL my IE windows will freeze. It will consume huge amounts of RAM, my hard drive will be accessed wildly, and IE wont shut down (even with system intervention!) for about a minute or two.

Please, PLEASE do something about this ad. Not only does the ad itself suck (And the fake britney spears pic in the middle suck even more), but it's freezing up my computer. Popup blockers are out of the question simply because I can't find one thats good but free.


Actually, that was the reason I thought, because it happens to me too.

Ok, I understand the last part, but I don't click any further on the casino add do I?

I don't clicking it a few times a day if it actually helps, so I want to be sure it does

hi ,

an owner would have to anser that , but if you read the message at the bottom of each page you shall see ' support apolyton buy from ( such and such ) '

it would logical to think that by following a link true an add would if you bought something give a small fee to the person who put up the add , in this case , apolyton , .....

but this should be answered by either Dan or Mark , ...

have a nice day

Sounds like you either have a crap computer or it's loaded up the ass with spyware. Especially with the Gator pop-up. As soon as you saw that, shoulda knew you were screwed. Now, it will eventually take over your life. Your only remaining hope is to install Ad-Aware or like program and hope for the best.

However, yes, I am also angry that the ad did not go to a Britney Spears gallery. I want Markos to start carrying ads that go to real porn sites, not just gambling sites with hookers.

I sometimes have the same problem, but I know I have spyware on my comp... (it finds itself every now and then)

I routinely wipe them off every month or so.

The 'Bfast' and another one are coming from 'Apo btw, they aren't spyware ( at least, that's what Mark tries to make us think )but they do keep showing up in both adaware and spybot.
