Whats the deal with FireFox advertising? Does DSLR get kickbacks or anything? Just wondering why it is up there?

No, it just means we think firefox is the better browser.

Go there. Does it offer money? (No.)

Advertising, plain and simple. Bad move. I personally don't like Firefox in any way...now I have to look at a Firefox add anytime I'm here?

I've found that using an eye patch keeps me from looking at it.

There should be an option NOT to see ANY ads(Premium?)...

Funny thing though, Outpost will block images of any predetermined size... this image says 110x32. Not being blocked.

So if this is an ad, why hasn't everyone been complaining about the NAC.net "ad" at the bottom of each page?

It's not an image, it's text and at the bottom of the page.

Oh, and that FF endorsement wouldn't bug you if it were text?

#2 font and at the very bottom of the page I wouldn't mind. But an image(ad) that is being a pain to block...

What's the affiliate link for? Must be some reason it's there. If not, might as well link to http: //www.spreadfirefox.com
instead of
http: //www.spreadfirefox.com/?q=affiliates&id=4507&t=61

I'd assume so kasia can keep track of the hit counts or something.
