Pop up ads.
One thing that really annoys me are pop up ads. As an AOL user, they slow the computer right down and sometimes makes the computer freeze.
So why has KMC suddenly got pop up ads?

To help pay with the costs of running the forums.
How often are you getting popups? You should only be getting them once per visit...which I think is fair.
Also, if popup ads are causing your computer to crash, then think about running a popup killer. Theres tons over at http://www.download.com/

If this will cost you money, then go ahead and keep them. I don't want you to waste your money. But the problem is, the same giant ad keeps popping up on every page.

I don't really care about the ads. There was only one for me anyway.

Which is how it was meant to be.
Again, not to worry.
