You go to a site page 1. Read it. Then click on the 'next' button
to advance to page 2.
BUT.....before you get to page 2, a web page (in that same window
not a separate window) with nothing but a single big ad and a 'continue'
button, shows up.
You are then forced to click on the 'continue' button to finally advance
to page 2 of the article.
Any way to by pass this? It's becoming annoying as hell.
Boycott. And mail the authors/webmasters and tell them why. Don't email
them. Anyone can email. It devalues the written complaint. If I'm
dissatisfied with something I never, ever email about it. If you take the
time to pen and mail a letter, it makes an impact, especially in this day
and age. Plus they can't as quickly or flippantly discard your argument as
irrelevant. I took such measures when a favorite site of mine started doing
it. I didn't get a reply, but they quit doing it posthaste.

If you annoy your users away, advertisers won't pay anyway.
This is beyond acceptible and I suspect will be a short-lived experiment.
There's _always_ somewhere else to go. The web's a big place :)

Wouldn't it just be faster to simply hit "continue" on the ad page
than go thru this long drawn out process? lol

I don't see this feature listed on their site unless a 'pop under' ad is
what I'm referring to?
