EXTREMELY Annoying US Marine Ad

There is an ad that pops up in regards to the Marines, and if your mouse happens to venture anywhere near it enlarges and starts playing a video. This is very annoying, especially when trying to click on other tabs and navigate your browser.

I didn't hear it because my sound is off, but it took up a third of my screen...accidentally ran the mouse over the general area...definitely annoying.

Hey Chicken, what the hell?? The sound started playing for this ad and I DID NOT click on it. I usually leave my speakers on because for the most part my office is pretty isolated from everyone else.
In this case, someone was nearby and it was not cool.....NO SOUND PLEASE!

<<<--- Agrees. How much are they paying to annoy us with this ad? I support the marines 100%, BTW..

Exactly I understand sound if you click on an add but when it starts blasting sound and has a video just because your mouse rolls over the ad is inconsiderate. What also is frustrating about it is that the close button is in top left so if you click close then move your mouse straight back down to the threads it starts playing again. You have to very carefully click the button to stop it from playing then move your mouse to the left then down and back to the right to navigate around the ad and back to where you want to go.

Couldn't get it to close for the life of me today. Kept acting like I was rolling the mouse over it til I closed out and reopened the page. Rather annoying.

Its not just the marine ad, there have been a few others lately that have been doing the same thing. Any ad with sound should be user initiated and lately that has not been the case. Here is a picture of the Marine ad:

yeah, we are working on getting rid of the bad ads today...thanks for your patience.

I forgot what other ad was doing it but next time I see it I will pull the ad tags for you. It would be fine if they started video on their own, it is just the sound that is bad, especially for people at work.

Seems to me all of you are just unpatriotic hand wringers.

Well you know since the whole Lowery thing, any chance to bash Marines...
You got me.
Thanks Chicken
You got me.
