    One of our regulars was a bit startled this morning when a popup on the News page tried to install a java script for her. Here's what our host at RPGDot had to say about this unwelcome advance:

    We have had reports that one of the popunder ads we are running tried to install a java script even if you declined to install it for the first time (there is nothing installed, though, as far as we can tell). We contacted our ad supporter at once and told them what happened. They removed the ad from the rotation until they find out what this was all about.

    We are sorry about this incident, and we want to stress that we do have those unintrusive popunders only to ease the pain the server costs cause us - not because we love them :-). We try to make sure that this doesn't happen again - as does our ad supplier.
