"This is a hot topic because there are a lot of people opposed to pop-ups and pop-unders," said Craig A. Pisaris-Henderson, CEO of FindWhat. "This could be perceived as taking away revenue from the requested site. On the other hand, advertisers are loving and demanding that you get this traffic."

I'm not one of those advertisers loving and demanding that FindWhat or anyone else get this traffic. Yuck, a bad taste.

I can't understand why the JUSTICE stystem has not acted on this issue.........

I hope they do, however, Gator is so popular at least in part because the bean counters look at the ROI and it is often good. If they actually had the thing installed on their computer and used the web or had it siphoning traffic from their sites or hiding their clients advertising they'd think a bit differently.
