Annoying Ad

I hate these things and try and block them on my website - don't know if it just slipped through the cracks, or if you wanted it to be shown, but Geoff, this ad is really annoying:

Blade - it's the second most annoying ad next to pop ups and unders. Yuck! It hurts my eyes to be on the same page as that thing.

If you stare at it long enough, it will get you high.

I've spent quite a bit of time trying to track down the source of this ad an stop it to no avail. I'll keep at it, I agree it's annoying as hell.

If you click stop in explorer it's an even better solution (than scrolling )
