Out of the Blue

[Sep 30, 2011, 12:20 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

Between working on a Diablo III preview and problems caused by buggy beta video drivers for the BF3 beta, I was already off to a late start today. Then MrsBlue, who is home from work today, decided to call the doctor to inquire about flu shots and announced we needed to immediately head off to get them, because they could fit us in this morning. This has thrown me off completely, so apologies for the extra-late update, but on the bright side, this whole fiasco may prevent the lateness of future updates that might have been impacted by the flu. How's that for looking on the bright side? At least I got the good nurse, while she was stuck with (and by, for that matter) the helmet-haired nurse that I call "the butcher" for the bruises she tends to leave with the needle.

Blue, any idea whenever I load the site that on the front page I'm loading UGO's main page in the ad box at the top of the page? An ad I can understand but if I wanted to load their entire stupid page - which I don't - I'd be going to their site instead.

This site long ago broke ties with UGO... where are you seeing ads for them now?

It's just on the front page, main ad box below the Blue's logo, every time - and I do mean every single time - I come to the site. And its been that way for a while now. I don't see it on any of the pages when I go into the comments sections. And I don't know why seeing as I have UGO cookies blocked. So somehow they're doing an end-run around you here. And again, it is their entire front page loading in the little box, and when I check the properties witha context click it does show up as www.ugo.com. If you could find a solution I'd be grateful. That sort of weasely shit really gets on my tits.
