* I specifically chose this host on the promise it would not have popups.
* They then said they would make the popups load behind the page instead of
in front. They don't.
* The popups are supposed to be temporary, but there's no indication
whatever of what "temporary" means.

I really don't want to move the site again, but if these popups stay too
long, I'll have to - they annoy me beyond measure.

I'll give NetCabins their due - the mechanics of runningthe site (FTP etc)
work without a hitch; they don't complain about zipfiles; and (an important
one, this), they actually answer my e-mails. I just feel let down that the
service isn't doing what it said it would.

(NB: yes I know I could pay for a proper domain, but frankly I can't be
bothered, so I probably deserve everything I get... :) )

You'd be surprised how much faster you can browse when not downloading
superfluous ad images...

I'm ahead of you there - got it as soon as it was mentioned in
alt.comp.freeware. Sadly, my hosts's T&Cs mean I can't promote it on my
site, but I can - and do - recommend it here!

Yes. In any case, you can configure WebWasher so that it only filters
out certain sizes of adverts.
