Dumbest ad EVER!
Gooseberry Clock:
OK, let me break it down for you:
1. Go to http://www.vg-network.com/
2. Click on a download (emudl.phtml)
3. It should say "Testing, please wait... Don't close or refresh this window!"
4. If you see the file's details, then "congratulations, you're not blocking ads". If "We've determined you're using popup blocking software", then what is your course of action?
Calum:
pat yourself on the back for successfully blocking ads?

Well, it looks like Anti-Ad Blocker doesn't unblock ads when the blocking is done at firewall level. Sadly, admins who can't unblock your ads can just redirect you to crap saying you can't block thier ads and download from them. Oh well, it isn't like there aren't thousands of other places to download most of the stuff I download anyways. If admins choose to cram ads down my throat I simply won't visit thier site.
I prefer getting files via FTP or IRC anyways. ;P
