What is the name of the file or what is the address where I can download a utility to stop banner ads from wasting my time. M, I will try and track it down but not tonight. I pretty beat and have a few more posts to me. I will do this by the weekend at the latest. Glenn

It would be nice to have a black box that would switch channels on my TV when a commercial comes on ...flipping to MTV or VH1 for a minute or two until the commercial is over. I have a feature on my remote called "Skip 30" -- awesome feature: each time you press it, it adds 30 seconds to a timer (up to about 4 minutes). Once you're ready, you can surf away to other channels. After the (e.g.) 2 minutes is up (a common commercial break length), the TV pops back to whichever channel you were watching when you pressed the Skip 30 button. This is a GE TV/remote. Randy
