[TECH] Splinter Cell

I am haveing a problem with and advertisment. Splinter Cell advertisment seems to be slowing my window way, way, way, way down. Sometimes it frezes up the window. I would love to have it removed if possible

 

You seek FireFox, I'd say.

 

Well its just that one. I'm not haveing any other problems

 

Well, even so, its a good excuse to switch to Firefox

 

Can u tell me more about FireFox

^^ you got pwned

 

Those animated ads are the reason I got the adblocker extension for FireFox. You can specify which ads you want to block or use wildcards to do mass blocking. It's easy and fun.

 

pff, get a better computer

sometimes I sit here and watch that ad for minutes!

"pff, get a better computer"

Uh dude. Not possible. It would take a miricle for that to happen to me.

 

I know that feeling.

 

After having some snafus with the newest 1.0.2 update, I'm still lovin' it
Firefox...[image=http://www.friedmanarchives.com/China/Page1/images/4%20Thumbs%20Up.jpg]

 

Install the Flashblock extension (it's 30k) which replaces embedded Flash animations/adverts with a clickable 'reveal' button.

 

Bonanza!

*goes to find flashblock*

 

Flash ads cause no-end of annoyance, and damn, they're even worse when you're using Tabbed browsing. Slow everything down to buggery.
I'll be glad to be rid of them when we move into Independant-ville.

 

Yeah, get firefox and delete that other internet crap you must be using.

 

My deepest thanks to outrider462004 for posting the initial question and to those who identified the root problem and for suggested adblocker/flashblocker. I was wondering what was causing the problem I was seeing. I had tracked it down to probably due to an ad and was suspecting Splinter Cell but that was as far as I was able to get.

Thanks!

runs off to get flashblocker

ALRIGHT! ALRIGHT! I got fire fox.
