Mouse over for voice/sound/anger?

Has anyone else noticed the bs advertising ploy now going on here?

It's an ad that or 100 that talks when you make the unfortunate mistake of moving your mouse over the top of it.

I know I hate it and in the future, it might be the straw that broke the camels' back.

I like to read what everyone has to say, but the owners of this steaming pile of dump will stop forcing the ads down my throat or I will surely puke it all back up and out!

I growled sometime ago about the E-Harmony adds. Folks could be at work just browsing then you get a sex dating agency shouting at you.

Marvelous.
No I use Firefox with and addon called 'Flashblock'
It helps with annoyances like this anyway.

The ads on this site say MOUSE OVER FOR SOUND.


If you run your mouse cursor over them, they start a vocal track.

(great a talking commercial on the internet, just what I didn't need)

OH, those.
Don't seem to be a problem.
Perhaps Firefox or my firewall have killed the mouse. :wink:
