Anyone else having problems viewing SN when their video ads are running?  I cannot scroll away from the screen.  You can be reading something and suddenly it jumps to the video ad section.  I guess I have to change a setting in Adobe Flash Player.  Anyone knows what I should do? 

 

When  I report the problem to SN it goes away for a day then comes back.  This only recently started...after the elections.  Maybe SN is running bankrupt and needs revenues

My pop up blocker is turned on too.  It is not happening right now on SN...just when they have that Maytag and Advil ad running.  I did Google it...seems like it is a new advertising trick to get people to watch ads.  You can block it by disabling certain "add-ons" but that create other problems.

I use firefox. I also have the adblock plus addon runnning. It does take care of the adds and the speed. I tried it without it turned on and the PC went into crawl mode. With it turned on it immediately went into hyperdrive.

I might have to try that because SN could really get irritating when those ads are running.
