I haaaate those ads that are all "OMG YOU WON A FREE LAPTOP!!!" They're so irritating; if I really was the millionth visitor to every page I've been, I'd be rich in laptops and iPods.

I also can't stand websites with big glittery banners and even worse... background music that starts up as soon as the page loads and there's no way to turn it off. Especially when it's a song I particularly hate

And the worse thing ever... PORN POP-UPS!!!

What about you guys? I know everybody HATES something about the internet.

Boy, do we hate that porn.  Yeah, the porn is bad.  Sure wish I didn't have to see that porn.
Notice I said I hate Porn Pop-ups, not porn in general.  I have like enough porn in my laptop.

well, i was angry, and needed to show it

any ways, porn is fine (even though it scares me), but when it pops up, it's bad, I remember watching a video on youtube adout rocko's modern life, and, there was porn added to the end  Shocked

now... i have to say that the harassing hackers are probably the most annoying. but that's probably since I have a friend who tries to hack my computer every time I go on-line just to be irritating, he never gets by my Norton 2008 though Grin.

porn adds are probably second place, once i was watching a funny video with my cousin, when an add for "granny thinks you've been naughty"or some thing... my eyes bled after that.

thirdly id say the "You've Won!" adds are just stupid, its like "CONGRATULATION! You have won an Iphone, now give us your credit card information and you will "never hear from us again."
so i quote cloud-boy
if I really was the millionth visitor to every page I've been, I'd be rich in laptops and iPods.

I also hate those comments that say "DON'T READ THIS, you will die in a week, unless you copy and paste this message on 5 [insert media/etc here]"

Ads, the worst are those new ones that appear out of nowhere, and the ones with SOUND. gawd. And I personally hate those zwinky things. Who the hell would pay money for that?

Well, personally, I don't like porn, but I'm not here to yammer on how I don't like it.  Something even worse than porn is Rule #34 of the internet, which states "If it exists, there is porn of it."  Those favorite shows of yours growing up?  Those precious childhood memories?  They're a sexual fetish for someone out there  -_-

Which then might lead to rule #35...

My vote goes to stupid people because there's plenty of ways to fix the problem of ads, spam, hacking attempts and viruses through the use of apps, add-ons and programs; you cannot, however, fix idiots from being idiots.

This is true. I too have voted for stupid people as being the most annoying thing on the internet... However, sometimes their idiocy can become rather amusing. Grin

I enjoy stupid people, so long as they're harmless. Viruses are never harmless, however, so they get my vote. Ads aren't so bad. They're just like commercials on the TV.
