THAT was also part of the problem. Sifting through all the "chaff" (to put it kindly) to find the wheat. At the time, there was no real single source for the addons. I can't recall how much time I spent Googling looking for them.
Well... admittedly it's been a while... but last time I tried Firefox it claimed to be a tabbed browser - only to discover that you needed to install and activate an addon to achieve it. Then you have to find the addon to enable Flash. And Java. And on and on.
Competing with FF was Avant - a fully functional tabbed browser "right out of the box." I still use it from time to time. I mainly use Dr. Orca though. It's very much like Avant, but I like the differences.
I used to use Avant Browser (runs on the IE shell) until the author also came out with a gecko version (Dr. Orca). It does everything I want, and then some - no addons needed.
Thank you for the reply. My browser is Dr. Orca (a Firefox clone), and it blocks them in SO many ways I couldn't be sure I'd undone them all. I might have to go back to using IE when on CS... I can't seem to get that browser to block a darn thing! LOL!
I use a browser that is fairly aggressive in blocking all kinds of popups. I know it's effective because I do receive a very brief notice that something was blocked. What I'm now wondering is... does CS use a lot of popups?
I've gotten the impression that this website has an IM feature. Is this true? If so, I'm wondering if my browser might be blocking them.
I don't feel so bad now. It seems a third of those responding are in the same boat I am (5+ years). What surprises me though is that 3 out of 4 have gone a whole year.
Two children brought up in the same home with lots of love can become two very different people. But if a child isn't raised well, I would expect the odds of a happy outcome drop drastically.
CS popups??
I just realized I've never seen that movie.For romance movies, I'm a fan of "Ghost" and "City of Angels." (HATED the way CoA ended... but I suppose that's the way it had to...)
