    Default 'Fiesta' ad with sound?

    OK, this ad is in German so maybe most of you don't see it, but it is REALLY annoying and pops up on every second LHC page!

    Is there any way of turning it off or blocking it?

    Normally I just ignore the ads but this one plays weird bird and animal sounds over and over and really annoys me when I am trying to listen to music online too.

    The title is 'Fiesta, der neue online rollenspiel hit' and shows a picture of an anime guy with a too-large sword against a green background and some kind of weird creature sitting on a sign that says 'jetzt kostenlos spielen' (play for free now).

    Am I the only one with this annoying ad?!? Often when people complain about ads, I don't see them so I am wondering if it is a regional thing or not...

    If you're using Firefox, I suggest AdBlockPlus.

    I'm using Safari and on a Mac. Pop ups are already blocked. This ad is sooo annoying!

    That's why I suggested a program that blocks ads. Ads are not covered under pop-up blockers.

    I think my brain has somehow circumvented the point where it finds it irritating, and just phased it out. It's come up on other sites for me too. I haven't clicked on the blooming thing once.
