Which is pretty easy to stop.

If websites allowed an option for "non-intrusive ads" then I'd probably take ot.

The problem is they don't and generally they offer adverts in frames from 3rd parties who don't adequately vet the content. I've run across too many driveby software installations and _noisy_ adverts in frames to allow them ever again.
