can't you turn the speakers down or something? UGN Security has to advertise, thats how UGN Security stays alive through advertisement. If you keep hearing it, wouldn't you know it's there and you should be allow, so shouldn't bother you... ![[smoking]](graemlins/Smoking.gif)

I don't think it's UGN Security... I come here a couple times a day and never get any popups. You've got spyware comin outta your ass, man

I don't get any pop ups neither. Sometimes I do on the buttom right corner, but closing it is simple. My speakers don't work, made a stupid virus and it actually worked. My damn friend opened it on my computer. It looks like it killed my speakers too. ![[smoking]](graemlins/Smoking.gif)

first of all, black spider stop being a smartass ok.. course dev can turn the speakers off, but as he said it's annoying and why the fuck should he turn his speakers just because of a banner ? but it's also weird, i visit UGN Security all the time, everyday and i never got anything like that. i just have one banner here.. the bonzy buddy.. agrhh.. one day i'll hack that fuckin company.. i swear to god, it's really pissing me off. Originally posted by Gizmo: It is a banner . The advertising company dicks us around so much that its rediculous. Just wait for Cat to finnish the design then we'll have a few suprises .few surprises ? oh well.. gotta wait untill i finish those gfx too.. anyway hope Cat is doing good. see ya'll

I really think that, spaming someone with, banners, pop-ups, pup-unders, and now with singing banners, and god knows what else, will not help anyone ! I mean, really, who the hell clicks on all the pop-ups and all the banners ? When all you'll get by clicking on them are even more pop-ups. And now, to make things even more stupid, when you install something like PopupKiller, they have pop-ups that detect that you have PopupKiller, and will not let you enter the site, and will spam you with a really stupid message like : "Turn It Off NOW, or this message will keep apearing !!!". So you see, there is no end to this. It's all fucked. There are banners that are ok, because they don't do much to anoy the user (except the more recent ones that scare the shit out of you with the weird sounds), but what I really hate are Popups, and I hope that UGN Security will never have to use something like this.

jon, maybe it's cause you have kazaa lite installed and had kazaa lite create a hosts file that includes an entry for servedby.advertising.com. That would effectively block the ads. I did this months ago when the first java or flash or whatever ad popped up.

That's probably why I don't get any popups or banners either. Though maybe it's because I never go to the main page, as well. I'm not sure about that, are there banners on the forums too? Never gotten one ever
