Retro Uprising - View Single Post - Is Microsoft's Internet Explorer safe to use?

I never see ads or pop ups on FF with ad blocker installed. The only time it happens is if I disable my blocker because it's blocking parts of a site. That is very rare though, because I am not willing to disable the blocker unless I know the site is worth it.

You think ads on your browser is bad? On Xboxlive we now have ads on the main menu or dashboard. Some are videos that blast sound when you try to scroll past them. Live is like 50 bucks a year. You can image how unpopular this is with the fanbase, Microsoft does not even bat an eyelash about it. I don't use the menu though, but it's still annoying.
