I emailed Travelocity about about that damn ad and stated I would not do business with any company that used such intrusive ads.
Got a nice form letter in return that said nothing.

CMB, did you miss last monday, with the suitcase eyeblaster (not popup) ad for travelocity? It came up in the middle of the page every time you switched pages. Very annoying, to say the least.

I think it gets a lot worse if you click on the x to close it.
The more times you close it, the more times it comes back.
I'm leaving it alone.

Gem, HPM - Anybody that knows webdesign? Am I nuts about this?

I saw it once at home and twice here already. I thought it was only supposed to be once a day (per computer).

I wish I knew what you guys are talking about.



NOT!


We have our system configured so that stuff like that doesn't pop up. I also doesn't show most banner ads and most popups. Ahhhhhhh....sweet, blissful peace.

Stupid suitcase. It's still not as bad as the first time. Stupid thing showed up on the login pages, too.

this stupid suitcase will be responsible for banner designers going out of business!

Treebait, you're right it's still not as bad as the last time, but didn't it start slow the first time too? I did see it about 10 times today already.

I really need to switch to my other browser.
