The buggy "click here" ad

The nice, low key, unobtrusive ads running down the left nav column and the minimal gif banner in the heading are fine. But the latest gizmo, wizbang, 'everyone else is doing it' Flash just becomes noise and drives folks like me away. One example is that I used to search via Yahoo several years ago, and now I am a google fanatic.

Actually there aren't any ads on the left nav column, those all link to the most recent press releases. The only ad is at the top of the page, and now yes, the corner (which is avoidable), and all that one is doing is pointing out this month's specials.

Now, as far as VFB's issue that will be something that needs to be looked into. Big obscuring purple blobs is definitely not what we're going for here.
