Has anyone noticed that on the advertising ads on the side and very top of the page, this ad that all of the sudden starts saying like: "hiya, hiya, hiya" really kinda fast and loud? it scares me sometimes because im trying to read something and then it statrs and i dont think about it. Some one should eally remove that. Its anoying!

I like it fast and loud. Hmmmm....what are you talking about?

Dunno.

stumped... you may want your doctor (or exorcist) to check that out. I've never heard that... Do the voices ever say anything else to you????

i use firefox.

it has a plugin called 'adblock'. When an ad starts blinking, flashing, or making noise, it gets blocked. When 2 ads start doing that, the whole page's ads get blocked.

Alternatively, leave the speakers off and wear shades.

Clint Eastwood used firefox i think the solution to the problem is..
Think russian..Think Russsian

The russians are causing all the pop up ads and annoying ads? It's another plot by the communists... a new branch of the cold war.

Just what exactly is a "wepage"?

its a letter from spiderman

stumped:have no idea what you are talking about.

1) are you sure it is RC and not some other site?
2) you should look for a virus or something, it might be a crypto ad that wasadded froman other site to your browser.

No, its not a virus, my computer IS virus AND spyware free! I havent's seen it today, but it does get annoying! I hate it. Maybe you haven't seen it but I have and eveyone else in my house has. And thanks for being so mean about it. And wepage means webpage, I was just typing fast!

Man stumped, take it easy we're just joshin' ya.

It’s not a what, it’s a who . . . Samuel James Wepage; a somewhat notorious and colourful far eastern trader, who was based out of Macau at the turn of the last century. He ran an import/export business call China Goods Ltd. which, though ostensibly a legitimate concern, was considered at the time to be little more than a front for a somewhat more lucrative (nefarious) trade.

His rise to pre-eminence in the “trading” fraternity is quite legendary (I’m amazed you’ve not heard of him), but it supposedly all came to naught when, in July 1901, he was “lost” at sea in a typhoon off the coast of Hong Kong.

He was known to have boarded the tramp steamer “Pride of Shanghai”, but was not listed amongst the passengers and those few that survived do not recall seeing anyone fitting his description. Of course the reasoning for this could be that he paid the captain a handsome bounty in order to hide his presence, after all he was, by this time, a man with numerous enemies. How ironic then he was to die in a natural catastrophe . . . or did he?

During the boxer revolution of 1899/1900 it is rumoured he financed a secret mission into the very heartland of China. His target was Zhijin in the Guizhou district, where it was rumoured the “The Great Mogul” diamond was hidden; a diamond of far greater size and wealth than even that of the “The Star of Africa”.

Though an extremely hazardous undertaking, particularly in such politically unstable times, it’s possible the upheaval within the country would have aided as much as hindered. So did he travel into the country? Did he find the diamond? No-one knows for sure. What is known, however, is that around this time he supposedly travelled to Japan for several months, though again no-one can confirm he landed. And prior to his departure, on that fateful day in July, agents of the Empress Dowager were quietly seeking knowledge of his whereabouts.

Once again then, risking all, it’s possible he embarked upon a course of action to forestall the pursuit. Taking ship he may have meant to disembark at some obscure point along its course, perhaps further rewarding the captain for staging a “man over board” accident. Maybe, being more that a month into the typhoon season, he hoped foul weather would play its part; though perhaps not as dramatically as it did. So did he survive or did he drown? We will never know. “The Great Mogul” Diamond, by the way, remains missing.

you need to relax, no one is calling you crazy, and if you look at some other threads in this forum you will see we come here (intermission) to have some fun. But the point is that you and your family have seen it on your PC. As far as I can see from others that posted here no one else on their PC have seen it. And if it does show up as much as you say, don't you think one of us would have seen/heard it? I went once to a site with my work PC and it overwrote the browser to use a different search engine and to automatically open the search window on the side. Shit like that happen even on PCs with antivirus and spyware programs on them. These holes exist for a reason to make it easier to the person (change home address.....) but that does not mean that there are unscrupulous people that wont take advantage of it.
