Sometimes, when I'm accessing this site recently, my antivirus (Avast!) blocks sites such as "goutsurvey" and "pollide" and some other "survey" sites (most of which have "survey" in their domain name), infected with "URL:Mal" (a scheme for detecting malicious URLs). I'm thinking these infections are coming from some ads served here. Anyone else noticed this?

Are you using Firefox? If so, there's this addon I have called AdBlock Plus. It's free and it actually works. In fact, I get no ads on this website. I don't even see those stupid commercials they play on YouTube videos.

You guys do realize that using adblockers is against Proboards' Terms of Service, right? You know, that little legal document you all agreed to follow when you first registered?
