OT- unwanted ads.

I think you misunderstand. These aren't little flash ads but full videos (albeit 10-15 seconds) that appear in a full screen windoe with a play, pause and rewind buttons. They look like tv ads.

Hmmm... I haven't seen those. I do have Quicktime and I can't remove Windows Media Player, but I told Mozilla not to run those programs, so ...

Tell me, what web sites do you go to that forces these videos? When I had Comcast, their home page ran multiple Flash ads. When I removed Shockwave from my system, it would ask me 5 times to install it again.

Also Yahoo, had Flash ads. I was at work, trying to search for a vendor, and a Gateway computer starts hopping around the screen. So I can relate to something that's real annoying. Let me see what those sites do to me.
