It appears for me often.

But it's a form of false advertising. One time I clicked on it in a fit of frustration at computer slowness and I was sent to a gambling site.

They'll think you're just a harmless geek and they'll leave you alone.
Trust me - they will point out the bit in the SoPs that says I'm not supposed to visit a site where I know inappropriate images may pop-up.

Then you only have two options left :

1.) Bribery
2.) Blackmail
3.) Give up on going on 'poly at work

I'd go for bribery - everyone has a price, even outsourced IT freeks.

Does your work environment have access to Opera or a similar browser? If so, you could set the popup acceptance to none. Long shot though.

Does the image in question really qualify as inappropriate?

You should post it here and we could qualify it as inappropiate or not... after all I still can't see that freakin Britney pop-up!

Is there more pop-ups on Poly? 'cause I'm not getting any of them.. Is not like I'm unhappy about it, but it is weird that some of you get the pop-ups and others don't.

duh! I didn't see it before.

Actually I don't see nothing wrong on those pics. If you have the permission to get into the internet on the work your boss should understand that in many sites the pop-up thing exist and is not a reflection of what the site is about.


EDIT: I just got my first Pop-up... the iraqi cards thing

Any pop-up is annoying. At least there are some nude skin on this one.

Taz (and others) where do you get those very custom smilies? (Firing machine gun, Waving flag, Rolling on floor etc..)
