Lycos is currently re-inventing itself as a portal for the new generation with the link to Playboy affiliate placed right on the front page (click on "Adults 18+ only")."

  1. Caffeninated soap on the front page of Lycos? by rolocroz · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    Did anyone else get the ad for Shower Shock caffeinated soap on the Lycos front page? It leads to a link to a search for it, which then leads to ThinkGeek. Odd.
