Hello,ive got some webspace of my own,

Geocities &
Freeserve

Now the way to do this is simple.

If you have a .tk address,create any old index file, ANYTHING! but when linking your .tk to your web site. Instead of linking it to Eg www.geocities.com/cookies ,link it to www.geocities.com/cookies/1

Basicly creat a folder called 1 or what ever and link ur .tk to that,that way it will avoid all the pops up

Although you will still get the .tk banner.

If you aint got a .tk.

Simply just change ur website adreess from

www.geocities.com/cookies to www.geocities.com/cookies/1. a bit longer but stops the popups.

Why pay per minute for a 0845 line when you don't have to !
0845 numbers are quite expensive on my NTL phone line, lots more expensive per minute than a normal local call. Plus changing dial up from my NTL Broadband, etc etc,

Pay your money, make your choice.

just forwarding from a .tk address will suffice, their banner overrides any banners from geocities.
Only 1 minor downside is that you get a "done with errors" message bottom left of browser but I (courtesy of SSXPro) have a piece of code that will eliminate that message if anyones interested.
