Countdown Clocks----Get Rid

[blueboy0510]

sorry to moan on here, not my usual way. However the countdown clocks are getting on my nerves. It may just be the slow connection here in Thailand but every page that has a countdown clock takes an age to click down. It seems the clocks slow the pages down so much

 

Again sorry to moan but get rid of these please

I also feel they could well be spyware or similar

Rather like those equally annoying shits that tell you your IP address, your browser and version and so on

I agree these count down clocks do indeed slow down page loads.

 

Another method to block these things is using OpenDNS and block the domains, for more information visit http://www.opendns.com/support/article/39

if using Firefox, install adblock plus and you can apply any filters to remove them only

I can't stand these damn things. The anticipation of leaving is unbearable as it is, but to be constantly reminded of how long you have left is painful.
