    Links already open up in new windows, but why don't ads?

    I think it's part of the DoubleClick regulations...anyway, why are you clicking on the ads...apart from supporting VB-W, that is?

    I saw an ad to win some cool stuff. Then I went to the site and saw that it was for Clear Skin something and there was a lot of pink and pictures of girls and I decided to close the browser quickly before anyone saw me.

    Advertisers are annoying like that. You ever been to a warez site and suddenly get inundated with about 50 new browser windows, all for porn sites?

    BTW, I didn't mean the ads themselves should open up in a new browser, I meant that when you click on an ad it should open up in a new Window.

    Where are these ads?

    All I ever see are Smartshop.com ads and ones to ask who I think the cutest n'Syncer is. I mean c'mon, where are all these allteens.com and filthfactory.com porn sites you guys are finding?
    Courgettes.
