Re: Zoneedit now forcing ad popups

Yea, but for not so serious sites, $0/month is a lot better than $6/month

You can have dynamic dns for free from ZoneEdit... you pay just for the domain, $9/year. Way better than cloaking.

If you aren't that serious about your content, then you can't really complain about popups showing up along with your content.

Give ya an example, show you what I mean: suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either.

Oh, so the pop ups are only when cloaking is used? I can't remember why I used cloaking to begin with, but I thought it was required for something I was trying to do...
I guess I'll just try to use zoneedit without cloaking.

Yeah, if they just host your DNS records, they just hand out a number, no opportunity for a popup (unless they somehow start proxying all the web sites that they have DNS records for, routing the traffic through proxy servers, which could prove to be rather expensive in terms of bandwidth).

Oh, I remember now. Its because my ISP blocks some ports, so I had to use cloaking to send requests to a specific non-standard port. Unfortunately, the pop-up is the least of my problems, ever since they made some change at zoneedit just this weekend, I can't get to my website at all even though zoneedit has the correct dynamic IP, that IP is not propagating. If I ping my address, I do NOT get the correct IP.

I'm not entirely sure if this problem of the IP not propagating has anything to do with cloaking or the new pop-up ad changes they have made at zoneedit (?) It has been more than 24 hours since the IP change...

Well if your ISP is blocking incoming port 80 then they probably don't want you running a web server either

Perhaps your ISP is now blocking Dynamic DNS traffic?

Well, the problem I was having, is fixed now, but I'm not sure what I did (if anything) to fix it. I just think zoneedit was having serious problems (which is unusual, I've never had any problems with them in the past).

I also bought a "zone credit", but I am currently still seeing popups, so I'm not sure how that is supposed to work. Perhaps the IP address propagating only happened after I bought the zone credit? Again, not sure...
