I do not know if someone else has posted this before, but I feel that clicking on one of the ads should opne a new window.

I just clicked on a link and it opened in the same window. I find this extremely irritating. This is why I do not love Rediffmail.

Can you guys do someething abt it???

And what do all the other members think abt it???
 
well...if you are referring to google ads...
we can't do it coz its against google's TOS.

having said that you can do it urself by right-clicking and selecting "open in new window". :)
 
In IE or Gecko based browsers, you can hold the "Shift" key and then click on the google ad! This causes the ad to open in a new window!
Note that this doesn't work if you are using Opera! In that case, you can just "Middle-click" your middle mouse button! Also, you can middle click in FF! Maybe this also works in Maxathon, but haven't tried it out though!

Hope this solves your problems! ;)
 
You can....... but you have to click on the exact words. Not on the whole ad. For example.... you need to click on "Raid Array Recovery" and not below it. If you right click on the lettering, you can open in a new window.
 
Guyz, even the middle click thingy doesn't work??!! :S :)
I use Opera and it works like a charm! :D

The only criteria being that you click on the "Headline" of the banner ad! ;)
