Pop-up ad - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia One way for PC users to close these ad windows is via the control-alt-delete command, which can result in all active IE windows (including those not connected to the pop-up) closing, and another way to close the mousetrapping window could be to hold down the Alt button and press F4 to close the active window. Pop-up ads by their nature are difficult to ignore or overlook, and are claimed to be more effective than static banner ads. Another variant, a "static image ad", is a pop-up ad that stays in a fixed position of a window of an ad-supported program. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Popup_ad   (1027 words)

Pop-up Ad Spammers Settle FTC Charges The FTC alleged that the defendants’ pop-up ads appeared as frequently as every 10 minutes in the forefront of consumers’ screens, caused consumers to lose data and work productivity, caused applications to freeze, and caused some computers to crash.

FindLaw's Modern Practice - Top Legal Marketing Ideas Moreover, the pop up ads did not use the website owners' marks to indicate anything about the source of products or services advertised by the pop-up advertisers. First, since the pop-up ads and the website owner's mark appeared together on a computer screen, the pop-up ads use the plaintiff's mark in commerce to advertise the defendant's services. The argument that the courts have focused on most, however, is whether pop-up ads use a website owner's mark in commerce sufficient to give rise to liability under the Lanham Act. practice.findlaw.com /top10-0804.html   (1622 words)

photo.net Site Feedback Forum: Pop up Ad I noticed that the Ads in this website are getting more aggressive: they have progressed from flashing to pop up to cover most of the screen when I arrive the frontpage of Photo.net. But the "pop up" is more probably some kind of Javascript ad that expands briefly.

CNN.com - Pop-up ads and 'spam' - Jan 14, 2005 Yet the kind of pop-up ads that Riddle had complained about were not sent either through an intermediary of an e-mail service provider, or to an e-mail address. Legal solutions, meanwhile, may be limited to certain off-limits pop-up ads: Those generated by spyware, which is separately illegal, and those linked with "mousetrapping," which may constitute an "unfair and deceptive trade practice" under existing state laws. But, in my view, the court seriously erred when it went further and said that pop-up ads like the ones at issue might be viewed as similar to solicited e-mail (which was outside the Utah Act's scope). www.cnn.com /2005/LAW/01/14/ramasastry.spam   (1287 words)

Building a Better Pop-Up Ad In recent months, the movement to oppose pop-up ads and their brethren has made significant progress, and pop-up blocking software has created an entirely new and prosperous market niche. And while Orbitz often gets complaints about its ads, which in the first half of the year totaled 667 million, it still sees a very high conversion rate for individuals who click on a pop ad and make a purchase, compared with other forms of advertising, the company said. Just by interacting with an ad that offers up gimmicks such as plucking a chicken or kicking field goals, many of these ads transport a user to the Orbitz site without a voluntary click-through. www.clickz.com /news/article.php/1563441   (795 words)

Brian.Carnell.com Via Slashdot comes this Fox News article about people's frustrations with pop-up ads, especially the pervasive X-10 ads. The X-10 technology is very cool, but their ads leave a lot to be desired.

Salon.com Technology The pop-up ad campaign from hell According to officials at eUniverse, the California firm that operates Flowgo, a pop-up ad that ran at the heavily trafficked humor site for a couple of weeks until late April caused the trouble. Try this: Thousands of unsuspecting visitors to a family entertainment site are discovering a cornucopia of unwanted, potentially malicious software on their computers-- the result of a pop-up ad campaign, a booby-trapped Web site, a compromised Web browser, and strange doings at a shadowy Los Angeles company. The ad, purchased by a Los Angeles Internet marketing firm named IntelliTech Web Solutions, was designed to automatically redirect visitors away from Flowgo (no mouse click required) and to dump them at a booby-trapped site called KoolKatalog. www.salon.com /tech/feature/2002/05/07/malware/print.html   (1507 words)
