probably because 99.9% of the bandwidth goes to ATOT and they want to remind people that there's actually a hardware website attached to the forums.

That's the thing. I never get popups from ANYWHERE and this is the first popup that I've seen since... well, I dunno... eight months since I installed Popup Stopper Pro. :Q

I remember I got a pop up while browsing these forums, but wasnt sure if it was something else that caused it, because the pop-up stopper quickly closed the window. I somewhat suspected that it was from this site, because it was the only one I was browsing at the time

So because it's never happened to you, I must have spyware installed?

Calm yourself, go take a cold shower, and get back to us.

I think the heat is getting to you. :p

I've never had this happen, either. .. and I don't have any popup blockers.

Are you a subscriber?

It's not the heat, it's something else. But good advice. Later all.
