banner site

n. [warez d00dz] An FTP site storing pirated files where one must first
click on several banners and/or subscribe to various free services, usually
generating some form of revenues for the site owner, to be able to access
the site. More often than not, the username/password painfully obtained by
clicking on banners and subscribing to bogus services or mailing lists turns
out to be non-working or gives access to a site that always responds busy.
