    My vote goes to the X-Cam hands down! This ad pops up ALL THE TIME! I cant imagine how much they pay in advertising to do this, but damn.....

    We all know that they are targeting the perverts out there who want to spy on their cousin taking a shower.

    Is there any way to get this cookie from coming up?

    www.x10.com goto the customer service thing, and then there's a link on how to remove the ad. it puts a cookie on your comp that gets rid of it for 30 days

    I dont care what add it is. I hate it when they pop up while you are surfing and you have to close them out only to have another one pop up in two minutes. I almost quite going to the sportingnews website when they had all those "Go RVing" pop up adds. I am glad there are no pop ups here

    p*rn pop-ups. I mean, god forbid you go to a p*rn site. But then, you get bombarded with popups. Leave me be pop-ups, leave me be.

    Other than the x-10 ads, I can't stand all those offshore gambling ads that are starting to pop up. IE has an option where you can put in sites to block, but it's not 100% yet as far as I can tell.
