Beware, this site uses the most horrible, intrusive popup ads. It crashed my browser. I don't use Adblock because I need to make sure that my sites look OK without ads blocked. I didn't try it with Adblocker enabled because I was too traumatized :)

I just turn Adblock off for all the websites I'm responsible for. It's really quite easy, right mouse click, select disable for ..... after that it never blocks ads on your websites.

Wow.

I was curious about the ads so I went to the page and disabled adblock, and nothing came so then I set script block to temporarily allow the whole page, had to do that like 4 times before I got to the fun. It is amazing how many 3rd party sites were running scripts on that site, no wonder drive by attacks are so prevalent these days.
