How To Make Sure Your Visitors Don't Come Back!

Written by Joe Reinbold


Pop up windows - when you arrive, when you leave, when you click to another page! It's an epidemic!

I was at a site today where they started coming up so fast and so many that it froze my browser and I had to hit Control, Alt and Delete in order to close a couple of them so I could get back in control.

You use to see a couple here and there but now they are everywhere and they are getting to be a pain. Little ones, big ones, ones that come up half onrepparttar screen so you have to actually drag it before you can close it! Others that are small but have a full size page inside but you can't read it unless you enlargerepparttar 134593 window! There are narrow ones that go acrossrepparttar 134594 top ofrepparttar 134595 screen and there are those that are larger than your monitor screen so that you can't get torepparttar 134596 upper right corner to click that little "X" to closerepparttar 134597 darn thing.

And now I find that I will close my browser and guess what, there is a sneaky one that is lurking on my desk top waiting for me, like a stalker, from a site I visited a half hour ago!

It is getting to be like an arcade game, they pop up and I shoot them down. I am getting pretty quick with my mouse pointer. What I need is a laser mouse so I can close them quicker :>)

Then there arerepparttar 134598 sites withrepparttar 134599 fancy flash programs. They haverepparttar 134600 pop up that wants you to downloadrepparttar 134601 Flash player. And that comes up a couple of times. First of all, I haverepparttar 134602 darn player and secondly hopefully there is a link there so I can bypassrepparttar 134603 Flash presentation. Otherwise I just click away because I really don't want to see it. I went to a siterepparttar 134604 other day because I had to get some contact information. I had to sit through a four minute presentation to get intorepparttar 134605 site because there was no other way.
