Re: Nexicom is using NebuAd

hmmm... is there a way to opt out of everything behind a pppoe account? Without the cookie trick? we use a number of PC's, I don't want my "ad's" showing up on the wife's computer. =)

Is that how it would work?

Re: Nexicom is using NebuAd

If the opt-out procedure is a cookie, that's really a dirty trick, since it's not permanent...

People will clear their cookies, use different browser, different account or another computer on their home LAN, then the ads will continue to appear...
