I'm all for ads and this being a free site but....... do those papratzi ads and the one with the bee flying around annoy anyone else? I open a bunch of tabs of different threads to go through them, and then all of the sudden, over my music I hear this camera clicking, or a bee buzzing. WTF? is it possible to turn off that sound? I right clicked on it, and there is no option in Flash to turn them off.........

Got your head in the sand? There's been at least a half dozen threads about this in the past week or two...

I just refresh the page (F5) when I hear those clicking noises. I seem to get a new, non noise making ad. on the next page load.

it's a simply solution that works for me. a minor, minor inconveinece for using RM.

*duck, here come the spelling police.....:nuts:
