I just got a message from a surfer of CheatingDome....

He tells:

Hello, my name is unimportant am reporting on the matter that you should get rid of most of your pop ups they get so distracting. I have to click on the "x" button about 3-6 times each, then my computer goes into this frozen mode and that takes about another 5-10 minutes every single time to re-boot. I have visited this site about 20-30 times in the past week or two, and every time I come to this website it gets worse with advertisements and pop-ups. I understand that you need advertisements as a way to raise money to make this site better I haven't really noticed all the other sites popups because I don't go to their sites, I got to yours because I can find every cheat code and hint out there in the Internet at your site. Just about the only time I have to go another website is when I'm looking for a code for "Reign Of Fire" for Playstation 2. I refer all my friends that need cheat codes to this website. I learned about you from yahoo search. Its almost seems like you cant get to your website anymore because of pop-ups!!!

Thank you for your time I hope that something can be done about this matter.

Thanks

Can you all surf www.cheatingdome.com and let me know how much popups you get on each page/link that you click ? So, goto www.cheatingdome.com count the pops. then close the pops, click playstation 2 at the left... count the pops... choose letter A... count the pops. etc.

Thanks for letting me know. You can just reply on this thread.

It seems to have to do with in which country you live. The bigger the country the more ads it seems.

I live in California, USA. And ever since you placed the new layout in order... I haven't gotten ANY pop-ups.

So, having to do with the country you live in is out of the question.

I'd have to say I've only seen one pop up since I logged on this morning that said I was the 10,000th person here. So, I guess the new look Genie gave CD sorta slowed the pop ups down or deleted them or something.

his computer is a piece it must be a slow computer(server possibly)
why would he complain to the genie any way it isnt his fault unless he controll s the pop ups

It is most proberley to do with your internet IP Address...as you get those security warnings and you are a winner....thats the only logical thing.

just 1 logical thing not really
there could be a bunch a possibilities
have u heard of spy wear

SPY WEAR- is in the computer it knows where (in the sites etc.) u are and pop ups for the computer pop-up if ur in a certain site u will get a bunch of pop-ups from the site

is it a virus or a hacking thing?

Dark Realms

No it is nothing to do with a virus or hacking...i think it is a combination of IP Addresses and Spy Wear like physc said...Well i guess this bloke has not complained since...has he Genie?

I would leave it now as it is nothing to do with C/D probs....
