Annoying ads

Question

For the first time ever, I have stumbled on to major impediment to internet use & I discovered it first on "SpanishDict" unfortunately. When one simply rolls the mouse over the upper 2x3 inch ad on the right side it activates the ad & begins playing LOUD background music. Do I now need to consciously move my cursor up & around the ad to get to my scroll bar? No other site (spanish or otherwise) has initiated this... yet. I HOPE it's not a sign of things to come. The 2 ads so far are for "Benefiber" & Bridgestone Tire (whom I am calling Tuesday morning about this... yes I'm upset)

Answer 1

"that feeds you". And you're entitled to say stop when that hand is going places it shouldn't. - Vikingo

Oh, yes, of course you are entitled to say stop, dear, just go somewhere else, that is the easiest way. Of course, somewhere else you will have to pay for what you get, but for some that is worth is, not for many though, good for us

Heidita, many sites which are getting the amount of traffic SD does now, offer ad free subscriptions. I'd pay! - territurtle, Sep 4, 2011

we even asked this on the site once and most people said they wouldnt, in any case, it does not concern me ....it is so easy not to get ads that this discussion is really obsolete - 00494d19, Sep 4, 2011

Answer 2

I run Firefox with the add-on NoScript, and I don't even see the ads. Just remember to enable SpanishDict.
