Forums - General Discussion - Anyone else annoyed with the "Hello!" sound on this website?

Everytime I come to this site when I'm listening to music on my PC I usually have to turn it off because of the annoying "Hello!" from one particular ad.  It also requires me to turn off the sound everytime I go to watch a video on this website or another and then start browsing the forums again.  Anyone have a good ad blocker for it or does Firefox completely get rid of it?  I'm actually thinking of switching from IE just because of that ad :|

Ya, I hate that too.

@Weezy: I am still waiting for the iphone I won.
@op: Yes.

By the way L11, I am glad you didn't really retire.



I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.

Yeah I have found since PS3 sales have picked up that the amount of trolling in the Microsoft forum has gone up with it.  I was going to leave but decided to stay and at first fight.  I was planning on basically posting in every Playstation thread with a negative spin on whatever the topic was.  To annoy them like in the old cartoons where a flea on a dog annoys it and makes it miserable.  But then I realized I was just becoming a Microsoft version of Nintendo's Gballzack and eventually I would be banned so I stopped.  I realize that the console wars, etc, are just fun and games so I have no idea why I was taking it so seriously.  Now I'm just going to enjoy the games with the free time I have left before I go back to classes.

LOL.  I hate these pop-unders on this site.  They are flipping annoying too.  Now those make you want to smash in my screen.



If you really hate them, then look for ways to not see them at all. I'll give a good hint: Firefox + ad block plus and both are free. If you don't feel like doing that, then the problem isn't that bad as you make it out to be and you need to stop whining.

Otherwise your problem has just been completely solved and I wish you the best with your safe new browser, great plug in and zero ads or pop ups. Good luck.
