here is a screenshot of the flashing "WINNER" ad.

Our apologies. Anand has left strict instructions not to use strobing or pop-up ads, but every now and then, the ad people seem to format their brain cells and lose all critical data. :( I emailed him.

I guess they replaced it with the new ad for telepaths or tarot card readings:D

Anandtech Pop Up Stopper

My less-expnsive popup stopper that works on ALL sites. I'm too lazy to set up regexp-based banner filtering, but if I did, it might same Anand some money on bandwidth ;)

Looking at your screenshot it appears your pop up stopper is in need of an upgrade having been built on 5/30/2002 :)

nah... its 1.0 final. Although IIRC moz 1.1 is now non-beta... and the popup stopper part of 1.0 is fine ;)

it would be nice if they had a better frontend to image blocking so i could block */ads/* or something....
