banner site n.
[warez d00dz] A 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.
See ratio site, leech mode.
