wow, CNET has really gone to shit, hasn't it?
three popups, including a full screen, autoplaying video, and banner
guess that's going on my blocklist
They always sucked, they used to have a list of some software that I used and downloading through them inevitably got you multiple.other prompts for third party shit and random download buttons.
