Everyone loves posting "I have 10 posts, praise me!!!" or "500th Post!!!".

not to be picking on anyone but this can be annoying sometimes and some people hate it. since your post count really only matters here lets talk about something the matters everywhere on the internet.

POP-UP blocker. and your pop ups block count. if you have the google toolbar or another pop-up blocker most of them keep track.
so let's see who's got the most.

yes this idea will be made fun of, but that's the point, to have fun. and block all those pop-ups when your on porn sites, or cheatcc.com

I use Firefox. I don't know how to check in that. Great program.

I have the netscape popup blocker and its only up to 750. Does anyone know how to reset it back to zero?

Kudos. But when I used IE, my pop-up blocker AIEPK blocked 2231. No telling how many on Firefox. The built-in blocker is as close to flawless as they come.

I know before I made the move to firefox my google toolbar was racking up about 10000 pop ups blocked.

Last time I used IE, I had about 3,000 blocked.

On a similar note, what's the biggest collection of spyware you've ever had? A buddy of mind (who is not computer-literate in the least) was once having random crashes and asked me to take a look at his comp. He didn't have any spyware software at all, so I installed AdAware on his comp. After updating, he had over 1500 exceptions. I'm not joking. I've never seen anything like it.

as far as spy ware goes, i just did a clean the other day, spy bot and ad aware found 200 things combined, about half were tracking cookies so some were just cookies and some were bad.

Heh.....somebody likes porn...

I think the most I've ever had was a little over 100 the first time I ever scanned for it.

My Firefox has only let in 2 popups since I've had it. It's the best one I've found, bar none.

My Firefox has let in none. I don't even care about popups any more...

I use Avant and the blocker resets every time I restart the browser, but the most I've seen is like 40 or something.

I haven't seen a popup since I started using Firefox either. THey're basically non-existant.

there's some adult swim site based off that episode of ATHF with all the pop ups. If you have a blocker it will go into the hundreds in seconds
