Adblock is doing it's job, I never see those.

Since World Domination takes a huge amount of time and planning, becoming a contributing LQ member could be a better start.

Besides that this isn't related to Slackware so why you posted this there is beyond me. Moving thread to the LQ forum.

I think it's okay. Why not take Microsoft's money? Most of the people who visit this site know better anyway. As far as I can see there is no harm done by running Microsoft ads.

I don't have anything new to add, (stress junkie) expressed my views. This is my vote in case Jeremy is reading.

you've got a point, i spend so much time here, i might as well sign up...

perry,

This is the second thread you started about the exact same topic, so I am closing this one. I believe I have tracked the source down, so the ads should stop soon. The reiterate our policy, I have no problem with Microsoft advertising here. To simply block an entire company would be hypocritical and against the open nature of our community. What we do block (and will always block) are ads that are disingenuous (at best) and harmful to the community. That rule applies to any company, not just Microsoft, but the "Get the Facts" campaign is probably the best example.
