Popup survey advertisements SUCK
I just got one for Ace Hardware. From this site. Now, I understand that this site is a business, and depends upon advertising revenue to exist. But this type of advertisement should not be presented to paying subscribers. It's incredibly annoying and intrusive. I have yet to ever fill one out. I'd rather not disallow popups for miataturbo.net.
Please can them for subscribers.

The site now has something, perhaps an ad, that is flash-based that actually has managed to crash/freeze flash on three (!) separate windows installations on separate PCs.
I wish I could tell you what advertisement it is, but based on how it works, there's no way for me to do it. But it is super-annoying and aggravating, although extremely rare.

Some of the (popup!) ads have even gotten past Adblock Plus in the past, tobimaru.
If MT just displays banner ads, it does not bother me at all to display them for IB revenue to help keep the site running. The problem is when it starts becoming popup ads, and then I go adblock, and then new popup adds that still get past adblock happen, then flash ads come in that freeze/crash flash, and

We have told Google to disallow popups though our network and sadly we have to get a screenshot or url of the page the pop up links to for them to filter out. There are thousands of partners that Google sends through there and some get through accidently (Google's words).
I'll do what I can to find them but so far I cant get any to come up in chrome, FF, or IE.
