I thought the forums used to be good, and it was good place for me to learn about p2p, but it's been pretty useless to me lately. I removed it from my Favorites months ago.

sorry i missed the image...what was it anyway?

edit

i ain't stoopid...i use norton personal fireall with ad filtering built in..by default with web filters turned on i think it blocks all strings beginning with the word "ad" so that is why i could not see the image..if anyone else is wondering about it too...its a cydoor ad.

They've been running cydoor ads for a while. While I have no idea why (how many people who have a program to place ads in read zeropaid?), I don't see anything wrong with it. While there's a good number of idiots on ZP that think cydoor tracks what websites you visit or reads your email or records you credit card number or kills your pets, the guy whose actual runs the site comes off as fairly level-headed about it, so I don't think this makes him a hypocrite.

It's a list of advertising URLs that you can put in your hosts file and block most ads. Dunno how many lines these have.
