Note to web advertisers

If I see any bright flashing animated gifs telling me I'm a WINNER, or anything else annoying, I set my browser to block everything from your server. So don't do that.

Check out the terms of service for my site. I invoice them $500. Failure to pay means I turn the account over to a collection agency.

Hey, neat. That work out for you?

Though, I was talking about ads that appear on others' sites, and not spam of any kind.

When I am bored, I sometimes set Kerio (my Firewall) to log those IPs; the idea is that I either add them to my Hosts File or block the IPs with Kerio... but I haven't got around to doing this yet.

Besides, rather than reinvent the wheel, it is much faster to download someone's host files and use them instead.

I haven't got round to that either but see Blocking Unwanted Parasites with a Hosts File to see what I mean.
