I've used Snopes for a very long time, and I also use the Adblock Plus plugin with Firefox. I never once saw an ad or popup... Adblock Plus (or Adblock) is the only way to fly...

nice blogging, snopes pushing adware is particularly icky, given that it's an authority on hoaxes.

Have never been to Snopes before...went there with Opera 9.25 after reading yesterdays blog. Never saw any popups. But,now thanks to adverse publicity via this blog, things have changed for the better.

Comment: Its a shame that i read the following story regarding your site.
I used to come here often, and frequently sent friends here to disprove
something.
typically it's trivial items... trivial enough that until i find out that
your site stops. i just wont visit or link to here any further.
I know a hand full of people who do the same thing. I'll be informing them
of this as well and let them decide if they wish to continue linking
friends to you site as well.
