I hate Rediff

I wonder why and how the Nasdaq listed, one of the top Indian portals, still continues to have insanely irritating advertisements. They not only have the ugly, flashing variety – but also the notorious underpopups.  I’m not sure if Rediff India serves the same ugly ads or not. But by default, I get redirected to Rediff USA (they seem to do an IP-to-geo lookup). And Rediff USA is as ugly as they come. Noisy, flashy ads and underpopups that keep popping under periodically.  I use an ad blocker but at times have to turn it off at work. And boy, if I access Rediff without the ad blocker enabled, its like game on baby.
