    If you go to the Voom website there is a feedback link, go and leave your opinion there. I did this about a week ago and got a response that it would be passed on. I classified the "Voom Guide Guy" as a pop-up that is more annoying than the internet pop-ups. At least on your computer you can block the pop-ups.

    I would prefer a really cute Voom girl pop-up.... The Voom guy should at least be an attractive guy..geessh....but the guy is ugly as well as annoying.

    I agree...get rid of the Voom guy. They can do what TNTHD does which uses a lower corner of the screen to just show whats coming on next or advertisment.

    I would sya no pop-ups at all... think of it like this, when surfing the web and getting your everyday pop up is annoying you kill it right?

    when a pop up with a half naked girl pops up, you close it right.. uhm never mind its probably a lost case hehe

    The only thing scary about that guy is how easily he showed up on the Voom Exclusive Channels. What were they thinking?

    Fortunately I have only seen him a couple times on Auction. I haven't seen him on HD-Cinema 10. I would be really POed if I saw him there. I also haven't spotted him on Monsters, MOOV, HDNews, or Animania either. Perhaps he is Just contained to some channels, or I am just very lucky.
