On occasion when I’d hear those loud annoying ads, I would be surprised that I didn’t drop dead of a heart attack. Thank you for this software.

Hey, did you report these guys to the BBB or add a listing to SafeSearch or Mcafee? Listings like that help the rest of us when we’re making decisions like selecting an advertiser….

I hate the ones that are “free” stuff. They always yell. I have like iTunes and Firefox open and a loud “GET A FREE XBOX!” just interrupts my music.

Thank you very much for taking care of this and for showing so much respect to your readers!

I hope that none of your readers who were affected by this ad were using a screen reader as autoplaying audio and video is a real mood killer for them…

Keep up the good work mate!

Good riddance to the annoying advertiser and welcome friend-for-life, good and noble Geek. You should give lessons to other so-called credible websites regarding their advertising practices.

You may have lost an advertiser but you’ll keep a lot more readers. Great site, thanks.

Thanks for the sincere apology, Geek.

Fortunately, I was not one to be effected by this annoying ad, but I am glad the problem was dealt with swiftly. I love to know that the website owners care about what type of advertising appears on their site.
