WPAA is BACK!!!!
 

With a few new bells and whistles.... kudos to the people behind this little gem...

WPAA Lister

It will be nice if the CO awards option works well. I'm not sure if this is using OP miles for CO, or going through WP using CO metal.

The only problem with this site is the crappy popup ads that try to install spyware plugins on your machine. The popups are tied to the "Go" button so popup blockers don't stop them.

I use mozilla as my browser now, and never saw these ads.

I use the popup blocker on the Google Toolbar (downloaded from Google.com) and it has always blocked ALL of the popups.

Mozilla and Firebird and most likely the latest Netscape stop those popup ads.

Yeah, why are they doing that (the pop-ups trying to install the spyware?) Seems almost as malicious as sites that open 12 or 13 pop-up windows in the space of a few seconds.

I always click "no" if it comes up...might have to look into the Google toolbar instead of the one I'm currently using. Could easily see the spyware installing anyway under the rapid-fire circumstances, and hope I can flush it out with Lavasoft Ad-Aware.

As for the WPAA tool itself, it seems SLOOOOW tonight. Don't know if it's the program itself or just the load on it. I'm glad it's there but with an asterisk next to that statement.

Mayhap a coincidence, but my anti-virus program detectd a virus a few hours after I had used the WPAA Lister.
Right now I'm heading over to Lavasoft to see if there's anything else I don't know lurking bbout.

Netscape has a built-in function to block pop-ups, so I use Netscape exclsively for WAPP List, and IE for everything else.

It is very slow almost every time I try to use it, and from time to time, I even get Server connection time out message. So, performance is an issue here.

Also, it only prints the flight number, but no connecting city code any more, and there is no way to know connection time either. But hey, this is a very nice handy freeware, nothing to complain here, just hope to improve next time.

Thanks for a good job on this utility.

Ad Aware showed no spyware on the computer that had accessed the WPAA Lister.
All popups have been blocked for many years on all of our machines using AdSubtract and this may be protection from the possible problem, as some of the above posts indicate.
