Really annoying ads

[flutefish]

While I know that selling ad space on webpages is importantn, and keeps this wonderful site free for us users, I must complain. In the ad boxes tonight has been playing the Microsoft Small Business Summit. Complete with talking. It's completely annoying, frustrating, and driving me crazy! I often listen to music or podcasts while doing these puzzles, and I can't hear the thing I am trying to listen to over the ad. So, if you have to have something in the ad space that has sound, can there PLEASE be an off switch for the sound??????
