I was like WTH - is the content like so great (or the site was so badly done) that only IE users are allowed to view? :) One thing for sure, ads are part and parcel of websites since it's early days. That's how people earn and that's how it would be. It's just that some people went a little overboard on ad-placements and stuff. ;) Hehe, a local IT site - I remember that one.

If I were informed that my web browser was not able to surf that site using my preference web browser, I will not visit that site(you can said anti that site until they realise their mistakes). There was one local IT retails site, not sure which company already, but they implemented such thing and ask the user to surf with IE. The next thing i saw in few weeks, was that site supported Firefox. :) Irony isn't ? Well, as for porn advertising, I think it depends on the site owner. I believe porn advertising offers lucrative price in returns, but you face lash backs from users who visited and saw "unrelated" ads. Well, adblocking is popular nowadays due to few factors like goldfries mentioned. I'm wondering, and pondering, I know flash ads is popular, but if visitors are blocked to click something on the site caused by the ads, ain't they doing the damage to themselves? I mean, comeon, you wanted to do flash ads, we readers do not said we hate it, but at least do a decent one and with a noticeable "CLOSE ME". Many of this advertiser loves to hide the "CLOSE ME" buttons and this is the only way for us to revenge on them. Blocking certain web browser is stupid move.
