Most likely you didn’t even see it, but for those of you that did, we’re sorry. We can assure you that we are extremely angry about this, and we’re working with the advertisers to make sure this gets pulled. If you ever see a survey that floats across the page, you should immediately close it. Don’t reward those idiots by filling it out! If it shows up on How-To Geek at any point in the future, you should take a screenshot (use the print screen key, paste into Word or Paint), and then email it directly to me at geek@howtogeek.com. And again, sorry. I don’t know why people insist on being idiots.

Comments (6) DiAnne October 24, 2009 4:49 pm I think I would like the Tiny Hacker website. I wish it was available as an iGoogle item. I seem to take the time to check all of my favorite little things on iGoogle, but never seem to get around to going to the websites unless I already see an article linking to it. Yes, I’m lazy. But at least I’m honest. gmbudwrench October 24, 2009 7:58 pm Link to hiding data in a secret text file compartment is broken…..”content encoding error” Alainn October 25, 2009 12:13 pm Getting angry with advertisers about the type of advertisements grants you a disabled ABP in my Firefox. Tom October 25, 2009 1:20 pm I’ve been buying music (from mp3va) for over a year. Recently, though the tunes I pick are no longer downloading to my Windows Media Player library, but to somewhere on my D:drive. Wondering if any forum contributors have a solution. Am I missing some simple command to download to Music Match? Would appreciate any ideas.
