Irritating Jolt Ad/banner

I'm not if anything can (or should) be done about this. Or even if I'm in the right forum. :p But I'm irritated at the banner that seems to be stuck at the top on every page I look at.

It's the one with 3 girls butts in skimpy bathing suits/underwear and advertising Gameshadow (http://www.adserver.jolt.co.uk/adclick.php?bannerid=572&zoneid=40&source=&dest=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gs.jolt.co.uk).

Once or twice was *interesting*, but it seems to come up all the time now for me. Is there any possibility of maybe not having that banner occur on the NS forums?

And wtf do girls' bottoms have to do with a JOLT feature??? :mad:

Download FireFox ;)

Then you can just block all images from adserver.jolt.co.uk, which will eliminate all but the Flash adverts.

Or, just do the same thing with Mozilla. :p

That's nice, but should I really have to do that? This is more the principle of the thing than downloading something. I can deal with it if I have to.

But there are kids on NS who logon from school. And the school network doesn't block it. (at least mine in SF doesn't)

It's unfortunate, but, Jolt has to get funded somehow... and, as much as it's annoying to myself, personally, it's not the worse ad that kids could be seeing online.
