Sorry to continue this off-topic thread but this is definitely my pet peeve !
I don't accept cookies so some pages I access I'll have to zap 2 or 3 cookie
notices and a banner before I can see anything. A vintage Mac page I was
perusing even did it when I clicked on"top of page" rather than scrolled up.
These guys are going to have to learn it's as counterproductive as spam is.
Unfortunately most of the AOL newbies accept it as the normal state of affairs.
I think a boycott list would be a good thing and might even catch the
advertisers attention.

Are we talking
about the same Tripod here? There's one pop-up (which all of
them do now on free sites) on only the main page and they're as fast as any
other. They rarely have a down day either. Evidentally you've never had a site
on Tripod. Mine's been up a year now and never a problem.
Thanks for the warning, I'll add Tripod to the list of servers I'm
boycotting. I will not knowingly access any site that pops up windows with
advertisments on my screen. I don't mind it when they've got them inline
with the page itself, I can put up with a couple of banners on the page,
but I will not put up with these (*%&^%(* popup windows!
I really need to take the time to do up a boycott web page!
