Any porn pop-up ever. | |
Either that damned mosquito, or the smiley one that goes "OHMIGOD! NO WAIIII!" So so so annoying. | |
the talking smiley face things. | |
Does it have to be pop-ups only? Because the ads for Evony are become more and more rediculous. | |
Sometimes, a little window opens saying: "This site is running a script that may hinder performance" "Stop running this script? Y/N" It makes NO DIFFERENCE which I choose. | |
Pop-ups? Really? Aside from that, how's 2003 treating you? | |
Anything that says I've won something. For the longest time I used to believe them. -_- | |
Any Pop-up that opens a new browser window. | |
The ones that talk. Oh dear Lord I always get "CONGRATULATIONS!!! YOU HAVE BEEN SELECTED TO WIN TWO FREE IPOD NANOS" when I'm listening to music and since I always have about 10 tabs open on FireFox at once, I frantically click through my tabs in order to find it. Basically any ad ever made. In fact, annoying ads like that make me NOT want to purchase their product. | |
for some reason the internet thinks i need a dating service | |
I have firefox's adblock so I don't get pop-ups | |
agreed. I've gotten so tired of those. I dont even know what the hell evony is, but i hate it. | |
I remember mine. I was at school, searching google. And then a teacher came by... Man, it took forever before they believed me. Thankfully the 2 people, 1 my friend, the other some dude, saw the whole thing and helped convince the dean I wasn't surfing porn. | |
Free Scat Porn...I nearly vomited | |
Ads that talk. If they're gonna do that, they should at least be Billy Mays-style advertisement voices, cause it's really creepy when they aren't. I was once listening to music when I hear a soft voice say "Hello." I almost legitimately shat myself. When I found out it was an ad I thought about putting my faith in society up for adoption. | |
Yeah.. this.. | |
On my old laptop I started getting this one that came in two sections. One was like a Windows Alert Message saying something along the lines of: I also used to get popups from "Katerina" from "Russia" and she wanted to "meet nice English man" etc. Yea I've had a bad history of popups. | |
Flash-based popups that SOMEHOW got past AdBlock Plus once. | |
This was probably an intentional prank on the part of the web designer rather than a typical popup, but a long time ago I went to this one site somebody on another message board had as their homepage, clicked something, and it brought up this window with a bunch of laughing faces and a sound playing "YOU ARE AN IDIOT, HAHA HAHA HA HA!" and the window then started randomly flying around the screen. If you managed to catch it and close it, four more identical ones would take its place. And if you closed any one of those, four more took its place. Pressing the Reset button on my computer dealt with it. | |
can I ask what you saw to make you get Adblock?
Is that some kind of Improve Jazz group?
Right indeed, those are very irritating. | |
More like heard. "Congratulations, You've been selected to get a free...Nintendo Wii,Ipod,laptop etc" Those ads. | |
The same thing happens to me all the time. | |
Pop-up blockers=protectors of sanity Thank you you wonderful little lines of computer code! | |
Norton :P | |
Click this pop-up to block all pop-ups, ughhh | |
Slipped on the mouse and hit a link. That was the best porn virus ever(sarcasm). | |
the adds on the side of redtube. almost all of the "real" girls usernames end with 20 | |
Those damned talking ones. | |
I remember seeing one a long time ago that had a picture of a women staring at you rather happily and the speech bubble had her saying, "Centipedes? In my vagina?" Then the add said "Get a FREE virus scan!" I thought wow, this is just awful and wrong. | |
Those 20-30 second long advertisements that regularly appear before youtube videos start. | |
Aside from EVERYTHING mentioned. I especially hate the ones that trace your IP and reference where you live. | |
the damn party poker ad's, they pop up every other click on some sites. | |
Thank you. | |
Most arent too bad, i can even handle the porn ones. What bothers me the most are the ones with sound. FUCK that drives me crazy when a loud ass "CONGRTULATIONS you have just won and ipod!!!" | |

For me it has to be the damn "Free Spy Checker will now check your computer for spyware. Over YOUR internet connection! *flash blue* *flash green* *flash bright red*". What really pissed me off about it was it's tendency to always appear when I was looking at webcomics. I have to say that it had A "very" official looking interface that filled my browser window, while lovingly blocking my view of the words and image. (And just to show how much it cared) Refusing to disappear unless it made a full connection or I closed my entire web browser. Which meant a lot of opening and closing just to read one frame of webcomic.
So what is the most annoying one you have had uninvitedly appear in your browser window?
Edit: Ads are pretty annoying too.
