Everytime I come on here I get harrassed by a little popup window trying to sell me a crappy Chevy Silverado! What the F*? Cant we at least get a Toyota pop up window? Is that a joke?

It's a Google ad. Randomly chosen to fit the content of the page you open, in this case it's picking a pick-up truck ad. Unfortunately, it won't be a Tundra each time.

You should look into a better filter if you are still getting pop-up ads. Personally, I use IE7pro. It blocks evvvverything.
