Please join me in boycotting Sailnet until they stop putting ads in our personal posts. Shut this place down. Thank you.
Have a nice day... /sigh

I don't like it either, but you know what? It's their site and if you don't like it you can always wander off to other sites.

I am not boycotting nor would I think of it. I like the site and have made many friends here. We all know it costs money to keep sites like this up and going. We all know that retail sales are down, the sales that pay for this site. We all know how cheep sailors are. It's just another revenue source to keep things up and running.

Maybe the management is just trying to balance the budget.

Well if they are going to advertise on me I expect a reduction in my subscription amount!

This worked for me!!!

I am using Windows Vista:

1. Select Tools from the top menu bar
2. Select Internet Options
3. Select Security
4. Select Restricted Sites
5. Select Sites
6. Type in the address where it says to "Add this Website to the zone:"
I entered: "http://*.googlesyndication.com"
7. Click on ADD
8. Click on Apply

and you are done. IE might need to be restarted for the change to take effect.

Hope this helps.

here's the new programmer....

think you can find it in your collective hearts to forgive her?
Hnmmm

She get there by Sailboat?

Ahhh never mind.

At least I was motivated enough to upgrade to Firefox. Forgiven.

Now,
How about PM'ing me her phone number. I need to tell her what her next assignment will be. FIX THE SAILNET STORE!
(I'd put a smiley, but I'm serious...but those brains (all three of them) into making Sailnet the best place to shop so I'm not embarrassed when I send friends there who see my burgee)

Smack,
You GOTTA go over to the Boycott thread and post the following..

"New Programmer...Fight Club... NOW"
Now that I see the photo - I see what you mean C3PO.

Bring it on "progspammer". And bring your "friends" with you. Programmer - pththh. Can't even see the freakin' keyboard.

Oh, yeah, did I tell you that CP knows Fortran? Does that make you (did you see Austin Powers 1-6)?

PS - So let's see a show of hands...who's going to now remove the ad block software from your computers since 90% of the membership have now taken the revenue generation away from this fine site? Dog, are you helping them with that?
