Preserved Topic: What the hell? lol (Page 1 of 1)

I accidentally closed the real one, then stopped to think for a second, then broke out with laughter. It was originaly a pop up add to kill pop up adds. So I went to history and just resized it to show you all.

Does anyone else fine this slightly hypocritical?

That has to be one of the most awful windows themes I've yet to see... Good Lord, ya'll...

1) I agree.. using a pop-up ad to advertise an anti-pop-up ad program sounds hypocritical. But I'll bet it works.
2) Couldn't you have cropped the image down to just the ad, reduced it to a thumbnail connected via link to the full-sized image? Just in the interests of concern for our 56k inmates?
3) I like green. Like it a lot. But that's a heck of a lot of green. Ever get tired of it?

Lotta green.. lotta lotta green. And just cause it's fun... back at ya.

InSiDeR: I do believe that the screenshot looks a lot like Windows XP... is it?

It takes a lifetime to die.

Yea, that green is manky.
But it does go with the tool background I guess (you put the word tool didnt you)
And a Perfect Circle are cool to

I think the idea of it being a pop-up is to show you how annoying pop ups are. It kinda makes sense.

Witherin:

Just a suggestion, but you might like to take out the black boxes around your shortcuts.

check out TransText

Thanks for the suggestion Cprompt. I have trans text.. but never bothered to set it up for startup. Sometimes I remember to run it.. sometimes not.

Bah, yes its widows XP, I just set to classic. Actually no the word TOOL was there because theat was the back cover to aenima, and I got it at www.toolshed.down.net and since the eye has green retina's I made the "3D Objects" green as well , one of these days I am going to make my own backround...

As for the pop-up, I am sorry but I thought that was hilarious people, lol it still strikes me as funny.

marketing is marketing, no matter what form it takes. They probably thought it was pretty clever of themselves....

You know.. I never thought about that.. It's just an old skull I had knocking about.. I suppose it could be your skull.

Hmmm...I see that you use KaZaa...You DO know that it screws with IE right? No, you didn't? Well, that probably why youre using it then. Look here:

Just thought that I'd let you know...

PS: My Windows scheme is the standard grey, boring, with one of DG's pics as the background.

If you wan't to remove the spyware, run AdWare, a free program, or, as I can see you probably have NO problem getting your hands on something better *cough*...nm...I didn't say that, use AdWare!

you know whats sad, I tryed to X out of the picture of the pop up windows cuz I thought that it was real!

what do you suggest i use cfb

Well...unless your running KaZaa Lite, run AdWare by LavaSoft, it should do the trick, it did for me, but then I uninstalled it and got CuteFTP, IMesh and WinMX. KaZaa just wasnt my thing, go figure.
