That dang bing crap is driving me nuts as well, leave it to Micro$oft to clutter up everything..the pop ups are pretty annoying as well. Sponsors posting and banner ads for them i think is perfectly fine, but im not here to look for a Dodge Ram or viagra or whatever else junk seems to be showing.

Capt you and the other sponsors are appreciated by all I am sure. You all are very reasonable with the various approaches you take getting your message across.

Im runnin' fire fox & a router. This site runs fast & I have never seen a pop up!
Give it a whirl or try the google bar that has a pop up blocker in it but fire fox seems to load everything faster than exploder does!
Ride safe!
