Yes, they have included popups in their banner campaigns,
as I mentioned in my previous message. And those ads are
incredibly annoying because they lack a frequency cap,
so they can show up on every page if needbe. Granted,
you can block just about all the popup deals by
blocking both "obtrusive" and "nonobtrusive" popups,
the latter of which they snuck in earlier this year.

My point was that I was surprised by the lack of stand-
alone popup deals. Something with a frequency cap that
would only show up on the main (or designated) page on
entry or exit and was not tied to a banner campaign. I
realize they have the Unicast ads, but those aren't
really selling well, or at least they weren't last time
I used them.
