Interesting funding discussion regarding JayIsGames.com
Deozaan:
What makes you think so few JayIsGames visitors are using adblockers?
Admittedly, most people I know don't use them, but they're not the kind of people who would be visiting sites like JayIsGames anyway.

I'm just shocked at the idea that so many of the visitors to any site are using adblockers.

Seriously? :huh:
Whenever I install Firefox on a client machine, AdBlock Plus and NoScript are the only extensions I include by default. And my clients are glad to have them.

Exactly. And I only turn it off if I consciously think of it. Ads have gotten a bad name, and as such, are on the losing side on most installations.
tomos:
Well,
I enabled adblock on many sites. Unfortunately I have now gotten a popup virus that wanted me to download and install I-know-not-what.
(NewBrowserVersion.org pop-up -- more info here http://malwaretips.com/blogs/newbrowserversion-org-removal/#browser)
I'm not sure even via which site I got it (I had opened a session in Firefox and went through a bunch of tabs to load them) but I reckon I'm probably correct in thinking it came via an ad
:(
Prompted me to finally install malwarebytes at least :up:
