    guys, ignore this if you want...
    but would it be possible to remove that 'blue movies' banner.
    the trouble is i'm getting a bit of a rep as a porn freak in work (it may be true, but i never look at the stuff in work... much)
    i like the ad, but i'm sure it's causing a bit of trouble for other ppl

    It had me going for a while as well, but a quick scroll down should hide it from prying eyes.

    Why don't you put a button beside the ad which lets you turn off that particular ad if you find it offensive. As a loyal customer of Eircom I know how I'd use this feature. :P

    Its nearly at its end (its a paid for ad) and its just a bit of fun, honestly.

    Should have been here when we were canvassing for votes for the Golden Spiders.... we had a big flashing red FREE PORN banner ad.

    Interestingly, that banner ad got 8 (count them, 8!) times more click-throughs then its brothers, despite being for the same company and displayed the same number of times...

    Sex (or porn) sells...

    (just scroll down before it loads sure).

    it's a cool ad, i even clicked on it the first time i saw it:rolleyes:
    the computers in work are seriously slow, i can never seem to scroll down fast enough.
    i just hate that shocked sigh i hear from some passer by (i'm half expecting to get called into the bosses office soon)
    not too fussed really

    i think i was, no one seems to mind you looking at porn in college, so it wasnt a prob then.
    i came into work this morning and the internet history bar was open, looks like they were checking up on me:rolleyes:
    lucky i clear my tracks after i look at anything dodgy i guess.
    leave the ad actually, i can have me some fun screwing with my colleagues heads:D
