General discussion

I love some of these Ads......

at the bottom of this discussion page. From time to time they say "Free Download, Free Scan, or Free Diagnostics" Free alright, but you have to pay to fix the results or install the download.

And have you noticed, if you post a discussion about music...go to bottom of the page. There will be ads for music downloads. That "You are Drunk" post I put on here. The bottom page ads were displaying AA treatment centers or something about alcohol abuse. If they can't find something to match your post, its just blank or some other ad. Pretty neat, but who the heck scrolls way down to the bottom here.
