i sent a support email to the ad folks. if you can manage to the get the url of that ad (the ads are iframes within iframes within iframes so it can be tricky to get the right url) it would help me block it easier 10/31/2011 11:29:25 PM

I paid to get a premie account for the sole satisfaction of knowing that you would be spammed with ever-more-interactive and obtrusive ads.
