It's got me three or four times today. Glad I wasn't eating or drinking on the last one. I would have made a mess ;D

Has anyone ever had the ad that counts down two minutes for you to click on it to "win"? I waited two minutes (because I have time to do that xD) and the counter was at zero then went back to two.

I hate ads that talk. I once was at work and ordered something online. After it accepted my credit card, it blared out, "THANK YOU FOR YOUR ORDER, WHY NOT CHECK OUT OUR OTHER DEALS."

Myself and a member at my forum reported the ad several days ago, and it's still here?  Zombie ad never dies. Audio ads are bad in the first place, but when you're listening to a quiet song and turn your volume all the way up, and then the song ends and it's silent, all of a sudden "CONGRATS! YOU WON!" |

There's a huge thread in support on this with how to report them as well. I've already turned in one report yesterday along with another. They were supposed to take to take them down, but guess that hasn't happened yet. support.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=support&action=display&thread=360682&page=4 |

To extend how long it will be showing and make it harder to filter all the copies out. Personally I see no legit reason for Flash or Javascript in adverts. |
