Stumble It!Google Ads and another reason why Microsoft Sucks

Filed under: Paranoid Ramblings — Eric Ptak @ 10:09 pm

I don’t get it.

Google ads aren’t showing up with Internut Exploder.

Here’s one right now, a 458 x 60 banner:



I don’t see anything with my Internet explorer browser. Nada. Zilch. Zip.

Pandora isn’t working, either. However, I’m listening to it on Firefox right now.

For some reason, with Internut Exploder, anything that uses javascripts is not working well, if it’s working at all.

I wouldn’t care, except that most people who visit my site, for some gawd-awful reason, use MSIE or some variant thereof. And whethere I like the browser, I have to make sure everything looks good for the masses. I have to take care of my peeps.

Maybe it’s just my computer, and the fact that Microshaft has given up on Winblows ME, and refuses to recognize the concept of “backwards compatibility”. But no, they have to go with Vista, the operating system that refused to be named:

It’s just a fucking joke.
