I am perfectly fine with ads in general. I understand that the server and ISP needs to be paid for somehow and ads is much better than subscription.
Sometimes I even see an ad for something I like.
The obvious scams are semi-annoying, but I can ignore them.
However, pop-ups are more than semi-, they are fully annoying.
I am not going to abandon the Duck over this, but my user experience is significantly soured.

They can be bloody irritating! That's why I only veiw DD with adblock installed- on Firefox, or Seamonkey. You can probably get that for Chrome too. Not sure about Safari or IE though… those are crappy browsers I find… :)

Please make screenshots of those dumb ads and post them here.

It seems you or your ad provider have caught and stopped these ads. Yay!
