CBox, which is a tagboard service that allows your visitors, guest or member to leave a message, so that message can be shown immediately on your webiste, then you as a website owner can aware and reply immediately. This feature can be installed into you webpages with a portion of code that can be found at cBox website.
I had used this service for over 2 to 3 weeks, recently i found that many popup advertisements once i access to my webpage, at the beginning i still though that this might caused by other websites, so just ignore it, but these few days, my readers had complaint that my website got popup advertisements just after a few seconds when type http://limcorp.net. So i start scan through the free service features that i installed on my website, then i realised that, the pop up ads might cause by cBox tagboard service.

cBox History snap-shot.
This afternoon, i had remove the code on my website, hope that there are not more troblesome popup ads any more. If want me to rate the services of cBox.ws, then i will give perfect, professional awards, just the pop up ads, will kick many of my contents readers away, even that is a good contents website, because readers no like popup, pop under and any un-wanted ads while visiting any website.
For me starting my own personal weblog, without financial stable at online income stream, so $2/month might quite heavy to me, but if i manage to earn through my affiliate programs such like payperpost and so on, then even $5 will not be problem to me. Just i can not stay until i upgrade my cBox tagboard service to premium.
I will listen to my readers comments, if this is the service that cause the popup ads then i promise i will never restore back and use cBox tagboard service anymore, since there are many free online tagboard to be chosen

yeah, i have removed my cbox last night. similar issue with you. I dislike the pop up ads. it’s just too annoying.
re: Shoutmix.com user (or anyone)
Doesn’t shoutmix have pop up ads as well? I looked at the features page and saw that it is NOT ad-free. same with cbox that you have to upgrade if you dont want the ads.
any comments?
