What are the most annoying ads in your opinion?
To me it's the ads made from flash that can't' be stopped unless you find the X button.. lots of them on one of my favorite websites, espn.com

The ads on yahoo launchcast. Especially before when they only had one sponsor. I think it was gecko.com

I have popup blocker, and at work, all ads are blocked, so I don't even know what you're talking about. :mrgreen:

those ads that are overlayed on the pages of sites. I don't think they can be blocked

With Firefox I barely get any, so I would have to say those.

The ones that pop up and when you close them another pops up. I have a popup blocker so it doesn't really affect me anymore.

I've got two pop up blockers but lately i've been getting a pop up saying Wanna learn french or something like that((it only pops up when i'm browsing the forums) :lol:

Mostly the "Do you want to increase your size by up to 2 inches?" pop-ups. I can never figure out what they're talking about. :oops:

I had a weird ad that wasn't a pop up, but some woman would randomly start about going to college whenever I went to certain sites. It was so loud too and it cut out across whatever music I had going.

The gay porn ones make it a little akward when they pop up in front of my dad...

i use firefox also but still get the flash ads on espn.com. is there a way to get rid of them?

by **Jing** on Wed Nov 30, 2005 2:15 pm

yea firefox is pretty decent, and plus in IE is weird, so this makes it even better
and the adds on nba.com and espn are annoying because some of them still manage to popup somehow

I had to do Flash assignments for school and looking back on those 2, they look bad compared to what i can kinda do now

anyways, i hate tv ads more than internet ads

the ones that pop up right where you wanna click, or the ones that take up the whole page
