Match.com pop-under

Everytime flyertalk.com loads, so does match.com. - Does everyone get this pop-under?

I suggest you write the powers that be if you find this annoying. If flyertalk needs the revenue, it should get a travel related sponsor.

Get a pop-up blocker.

I agree, that kind of material would be annoying to some users. But the free Panicware app will kill it off...

or get the Google toolbar that blocks pop-ups, and is a great accessory besides.

Could you have some spyware? I don't get any popup/under from this site.

Just as annoying is seeing the same post in different forums.

You posted your concern in Suggestions.... not sure much is to be gained by posting it here... besides, is it TravelBUZZ worthy?

Suggestions is not read by the rank and file. It was my message to the powers that be. This is my message to the Community.

Pop-up killers interfere with some sites where popups are needed. I wanted to see if others had the problem. Suggestions would not help me there.

At least one person said no. Tonight when I signed in I did not have the problem. Wonder why?

I checked both computers for Spyware, something I do regularly. Both were totally clean based on an Ad-aware 6.0 check.

At this point, I think this is off-topic for TravelBuzz!

I will move it to OMNI.
