Depends on how you use exits.

In my case, I only use exits in places where I know within reason the surfer didn't like what I had to offer and wont be back. If they turn around at your entrance or warning page....they aint buying what you're selling. So why not offer 'em something else? And if they get pissed off about the pop up or however you do it....hey, they weren't gonna buy anyway.

Join page exits have a whole different psychology. He liked enough to click join. Ok, why did he not join? Are you not immediately showing him a processing method he liked? Price point? You may wanna offer him something different without necessarily doing a pop-up full of banners or buttons.

Now one place I'll never put exits is on "sticky pages" like a girls diary/blog, etc. Let 'em keep coming by there til you finally get 'em to cave and buy.
