I cannot imagine putting so much effort into generating a web page and then having someone upset because the server it is on is anxious to cash in on my visit...

The knowledge gained from such a page far outweighs the peripheral inconvenience of dealing with ads...

Maybe I am not as good an audience as W4BSG - I guess I have developed my own filtering to some extent - like some kids, the "louder" the roar the less I pay attention to it!

Deal with it - and enjoy what excellent info has been provided you - all at the cost of your having to put up with the ads.

Kurt, I, for one, would happily contribute to the cost of keeping your technical papers available on a web site that doesn't do popups. Those papers have answered a number of critical questions for me over the years. To my knowledge they are a unique asset. If you like, I'd also be happy to do the grunt work of moving them to any other server.

Bill and others should also be aware that Google offers a toolbar for Internet Explorer that includes a popup blocker that REALLY works well.

It really seems out of line to beat up on an information provider because of the behavior of his ISP.
