[G4] Re: (G4) Got a question about an unwanted visitor...

[B G]

The new trend is to make the ads that pop up not a true pop up but a  
flash embedded in the website.

So a pop-up blocker does not work.

You might have to try a different browser, Camino, firefox etc. these  
have a web based advertising blocker that is effective for the flash  
based ads.

I haven't used Safari in about a year so I do not know if this is an  
option.
