And it takes a fare amount of clicking to get rid of these annoying commercial announcements since killing the windows or hitting the "back" button spawns even more windows with more porography sites. I'm no prude, but I object to the practice of automated flooding of commercial messages in wy web browser. Also, just imagine if one had accessed www.asclock.org from work where the firewall logs and flags pornography sites as a violation of company policy. How would you explain to your boss how you came to access a website that advertised "Erotic Teenagers" and the 10 or so other hits that happened as you furiously tried to close all the windows? "Gee Mr. Smith, I hate to let you go but we can't allow a pedophile to download that filth here. I hope the therapy works out." I think the link ought to be removed from the FreeBSD website. Please forward this to whomever is responsible for making such decisions.
