| hahaha. Yea.. it's just a picture with a link, so the ad blockers don't know it's an ad. It's not really an 'ad' per se... just an "Industry Event" for a good cause... EW and Mrs. EW have generous hearts in organizing such an event. | | | If you drink wine, you get smarter.... | |

Go to the Filterset.G site, read the file instructions.txt, and install the Filterset.G filter set into Adblock. Ads will be gone forever...

| Some of these ads, especially the animated moving ones, really cause problems with my computer. The page won't load properly and when I log in, it stalls out. I have to open a new window to try again to access the site. Usually on the 2nd try I can get in. | | TN posted on Cellartracker"

| If you use Firefox, you can selectively block Flash content with the Flashblock extension. If you have Adblock installed, adding *.swf to your filter set will block ALL Flash content. That's what I do...

| There have actually been a couple of ads that I have clicked on recently.
Can you fix it so that the ad automatically appears in a separate window leaving the vinocellar page in place? | | | |

| Unfortunately, I can't. The ads are controlled by Google code. | | | If you drink wine, you get smarter.... | |
