I made a vow early on in my internet experiences to never do business with anybody that used pop-up ads. Such advertising techniques should be discoraged as much as possible.

^^ Good call. I'd put them up there with spammers, telemarketers and door-to-door solicitors.

Aside from getting the odd laugh, I've learned to tune out all advertising.

I watch some commercials and think to myself...
Some Asshole from the advertising company got rich off this stupid ad. And worst of all, is the they sold it to a major company big shot, who thought it was a good idea?

I can't remember the last time I purchased something that I saw in an ad.

And I've emailed a few of these companies already and told them that they've just lost my business because of the sneaky way they try to advertise.
