Don't you think that the ad at the top of the C message board page is annoying?
I think so.
Would you rather there weren't a cprogramming board?
I don't think so.
Someone has to pay for it.
I don't really notice the ad it seems to go away after browsing the boards for awhile :) ...
I do hate the popups though.
god i love opera!
I also go to http://www.codeguru.com/forum/ and as far as I'm concerned....we are much better off here
it's bugging but one should appreciate the webmaster's effort to keep the board up and running.
u can't complain, you weren't around for the saddam era haha....god i hated that banner.
Web advertising barely works as it is, blocking the ads it just going to force advertisers to think up new, more annoying ways to advertise on the web (or off the web).
::clicky clicky::
once or twice i got bored and clicked every ad on this site like 400 times lol.
I'm sure teh webmaster thanks you for that ;). lol
wonder if i could write a program that would click the add, put new windows in BG, and click again....lol
Sure, just send an HTTP GET request with cprogramming.com as the referrer :)
Code:bool DownloadFile(Socket &sock, const std::string &remote, std::ofstream &local)
{
std::stringstream format;
format << "GET " << remote << '\n'; // Standard URI GET request
<< "HTTP/1.1\nAccept: */*\n Referer: www.cprogramming.com\nAccept-Language: en-us"
if (sock.send(format.str()) != SOCKET_ERROR)
{
RecvBuffer fBuf(512);
while (true)
{
sock.recv(fBuf);
if (fBuf.read() != SOCKET_ERROR && fBuf.read() != 0)
local.write(fBuf.data(), fBuf.read());
else
break;
}
return 1;
}
return 0;
}
hmmmmmmmm not a bad idea....
To let you guys know, most banner companies prohibit automated clicking programs, and can detect them. (So don't run it ;))
