>yeah i remember doodads to stop TV commercials and letters >to stop junk mail. neither of which worked. have you ever used "InterMute" or "Internet Fast Forward" ? If you have, you will find that you can surf every major commercial site and never see or download a single ad. It works. The only way to overcome blocking systems is to integrate the advertising so deeply with the content that you can't tell the two apart- like me saying PEPSI! every third or fourth word. PEPSI! You obviously don't understand the concept of selective downloading and computer software- users now have the ability to choose exactly what they want to see and don't want to see. Advertisers can kick and whine about that until the cows come home, but the internet is different from EVERY OTHER MEDIA FORMAT IN EXISTENCE due to the manner in which information is retrieved.
