Pet Peeve: Sponsors with "cash", "revenue" in the link url.

I do use mouse overs (not enough), but what about the places you can't - i.e. free sites, galleries? Also do you think some surfers think a mouseover is a warning sign? Just curious

Yes, i think so. I mean if you usually notice that when you click on a url where the status bar displays something other than a normal looking URL that you end up getting pop up hell, then you might put two and two together. The safest mouseover is probably to use the root domain url.

I don't think anyone cares if you use them properly - meaning that you mouse over this:
http://links.pimproll.com/?s=megasit...mp2144&j=6&c=1
so that this appears in the status bar:
http://www.megasitepass.com/

It's the blind or sales text mouseovers that get you in trouble with LL's & TGP's.
