I don't get that ad, I get a popup right in the middle of the page sometimes even with adblock.

I am getting that stupid video constantly pop up on the site of the screen and it makes navigating off the homepage to the forums a hassle. If you could get rid of it I am sure many people would appreciate it.

It seems the past few days that Ad in the corner has an X to close it. In the beginning, it didn't even have that X. It is a horrible ad and just makes me want to get off the page it shows up on as fast as possible.

This link is for a "You are the 100,00th visitor! No Joke! Congratulations!" type websites. I'm not sure if this is intended. 95% of people know this is not real and probably some sort of scam, but there is that 5% that doesn't. And if after a few minutes it just changed now to a " your PC performance is poor. Repair Windows errors." ad.

Hey sweet cheeks, I'm getting a gif of Kevin Martin doing Big Balls dance in the "suggested for you" advertising at the bottom of the page.

Possible to restrict those to images?

Not at the moment but it was still there as recent as yesterday, there was also some sort of hockey gif.

Will let you know if they use GIFs again.

Hockey gif is back.

It's for a link to Sportsbreak, caption is "WATCH: Milan Lucic Taunts Canadiens Fans With Obscene Gesture", with the gif showing the "obscene gesture".

These ads are out of control.
1) I like to have background noise on, TV shows, youtube, music, and these ads chop in. Don't even play the add, just try to start themselves over and over again.
2) Right now as I am typing this, my screen is constantly shifting up towards the ads on the top of the page. Can't enjoy reading or typing.

Is there any way to remedy this?

Count me in as one who wants the video ads gone. Very annoying and disruptive.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Yes even without audio... when you have several flash video advertisements going at the same time... your computer will slow to a crawl!

I have ad block plus on, so I don't see the ad and there's no way to disable it, yet this annoying audio keeps leaking out and won't stop until the video is finished or I close the tab.
