RpTheHotrod Posted August 21, 2002 Posted August 21, 2002 I play Utopia, and I keep getting this pop-up. What kind of perverts made this one!?
Old_Ben Posted August 21, 2002 Posted August 21, 2002 Just get a program that gets rid of pop ups. There's plenty of free ones out there, and you don't have to see pop ups any more.
RpTheHotrod Posted August 21, 2002 Author Posted August 21, 2002 Unfortunatly, these pop ups are built into the web page itself (like a banner)...and someone didn't look at their add when they created it...
Old_Ben Posted August 21, 2002 Posted August 21, 2002 I hate pop ups that follow you around the screen even when you scroll down. Then they don't leave for five minutes so I end up just leaving the site with out reading it.
RpTheHotrod Posted August 21, 2002 Author Posted August 21, 2002 Regular popups, I just right click the bar on the bottom and hit close. Some popups are so annoying though...there are like 5 or 6 things that "look" like an exit, but the real exit is on a timer and appears after 10 seconds in small test hidden in the popup somewhere.
Old_Ben Posted August 21, 2002 Posted August 21, 2002 The worst is when no matter how many times you close a pop up then more and more keep coming and even the pop up killer can't help me. So I have to completly exit the internet and lose everything I was doing to stop the flow of new windows opening up.
RpTheHotrod Posted August 21, 2002 Author Posted August 21, 2002 I remember this one popup. It would fly across the screen randomly, and if you did hit the X (or hit alt f4 on it), 2 more appear...if you hit one of their Xs, 2 MORE would appear..so soon you would have 70 popups flying across your screen. So annoying. (No joke)
Pad Posted August 21, 2002 Posted August 21, 2002 idd, most annoying those pop ups r, sometimes a quick alt+f4 keep em from popping all up. or use ctrl+alt+del (once) and close em
RpTheHotrod Posted August 21, 2002 Author Posted August 21, 2002 You guys did read that pop-up, right?
Old_Ben Posted August 21, 2002 Posted August 21, 2002 Yeah, it shows you how important it is to spell check.
Clem Posted August 21, 2002 Posted August 21, 2002 it does actually say Clicking if u look carefully ... the c and the l overlap slightly ..... looking like a d ....cl
RpTheHotrod Posted August 22, 2002 Author Posted August 22, 2002 Yeah, I know. Someone didn't read their own text on their .gif file before sending it off.

There's plenty of free ones out there, and you don't have to see pop ups any more. Do these programs actually work? I am really seriously considering getting one of these programs. As a warning if anyone hates pop ups then stay the heck away from Jedi Outcast Mod Central. It's a file download site that has mods for Jedi Outcast that I used to use frequently, however the last time I went to that site, I got so many pop ups that my system locked up and I had to reboot. My task bar had at least 20-25 pop ups along the bottom, and as soon as I closed one, another one filled it's place until the poor system just gave up! Apparently when ever you view a file on this site you get a different pop up. If you have broadband like I do then you are doomed! Avoid this site at all costs. Jedi Knight II.net has all the same stuff this site does, however Mod Central does not use FileFront, and it's a direct download. There are plenty of other download sites besides this one, but I will never use that particular site ever again.
