Problems with new Ad...
« on: March 12, 2017, 02:16:48 PM »
Sometimes when I open a new TRW window to read a topic, I get an ad by Focus Features that has irritating sound. Also, the page will jump to the top, then the bottom, then the top again, nonstop. I don't even have time to close the ad before it jumps away. :x

Thanks for any help.

Two scientists create a teleportation ray, and they try it out on a cricket. They put the cricket on one of the two teleportation pads in the room, and they turn the ray on.
The cricket jumps across the room onto the other pad.

It's a movie trailer for Atomic blonde.  I just got it twice on the same page and it's super annoying.  It shows a pause and mute button, but neither do anything.  If you let the trailer go long enough, it drops some F-bombs.

I had turned adBlock off, but this one's too much.

I didn't have 'Acceptable Ads' checked in the settings for some reason.  Now I don't get the one in question.
